Report: East Village bank manager allegedly stole $300k from a customer's account

A bank manager at Sovereign Bank on Avenue A at East Fourth Street was arrested after allegedly stealing $300,000 from a customer's account, the Post reports this afternoon.

He was arrested last Thursday at the 9th Precinct. He reportedly returned the money to the account. Police charged him with four counts of grand larceny.

The Post inexplicably notes that the manager is 5-foot-2, which we will inexplicably mention here as well.

  2. The account was short. That guy was the obvious suspect.
