WORCESTER – Police arrested a Brockton man a few minutes after a bank robbery on Park Avenue on Monday, November 15.
A mask-wearing man approached a teller at Cornerstone Bank, at 230 Park Avenue, and handed her a note demanding cash around noon. The man held his hand inside his sweatshirt, creating the perception he had a firearm. He then fled with an undisclosed amount of cash.

Ribeiro-Neves faces charges of Armed Robbery while Masked. He also had three outstanding warrants for his arrest.
