Three arrested after Penfield bank robbery

Penfield, New York — According to officials from the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, after a bank robbery in Penfield Wednesday, three people were arrested and charged by law enforcement.
Deputies responded to the KeyBank located on Penfield Road around 10:20 a.m. Wednesday for the report of a bank robbery, authorities said.
According to police, witnesses were able to provide a description of the suspect vehicle and responding deputies later saw a vehicle matching the description in the area of East Rochester.
The suspect vehicle got onto State Route 490 westbound heading towards the City of Rochester, officials said. Officers from the sheriff’s office, New York State Police, and East Rochester police attempted a traffic stop on 490, but police say the suspect vehicle failed to comply.
