Law enforcement says it was teamwork that led to the quick arrest just five hours after Thursday’s Credit Union Robbery. 24-year-old Denver Tergesen was charged in Becker County with felony possession of a stolen vehicle. He is being held in the Becker County jail. Fargo police say the firearm Tergesen allegedly used in yesterday morning’s robbery of the First Community Credit Union in Fargo, was not real. They recovered the weapon late last night after arresting Tergeson with a stolen car in Detroit lakes. Investigators say it appears to be an “airsoft pistol.”
Skuza: ‘They shoot plastic beads, but it looked very real. They said it looked like a regular 9 millimeter or semi-automatic-type handgun.’
The US Attorney’s Office in Fargo is expected to handle the robbery case, since it is a federal offense.
