3 arrested in Lawton robbery

Two Stillwater men and a bank manager have been arrested as suspects in the robbery of Lawton’s City National Bank.

Based on a tip provided to the FBI, Agent Gary Johnson said, FBI agents and Stillwater police arrested Bryan Ross Benton, 23, and Tyson Charles Martin, 19, on Wednesday.

FBI agents and Lawton police also arrested the bank’s branch manager, Todd Vincent Rudisill, 22, Johnson said.

Investigators said a man wearing a mask gave City National Bank’s branch manager a note Tuesday demanding money, and then took the money and walked out. Federal bank robbery charges against the three suspects are expected Thursday, Johnson said.
