ROCHESTER, Minn. – A Chicago man is finally sentenced for robbing a Rochester bank in 2021.
Jacari A. Peters, 33, was ordered Monday to spend five years on supervised probation and perform 100 hours of community work service.
Peters pleaded guilty in September to one felony charge of simple robbery. The Rochester Police Department says Peters robbed the Sterling State Bank on 25th Street in Rochester on September 10, 2021.
Investigators say Peters donned a surgical mask and approached a bank teller, threw down a white grocery-style bag, and told the teller “I’m robbing you. Give me your money.” Court documents state the teller gave Peters over $1,500 and he left the bank.
