Bank manager follows gang member after robbery

A self-proclaimed Ontario gang member who allegedly robbed a Victorville bank was arrested after the manager followed him out of the building.

Ernest Marquez, 46 was booked into the Victor Valley jail Monday on suspicion of bank robbery, according to a San Bernardino County sheriff's news release. He is being held on $100,000.00 bail.

Marquez allegedly walked into the Bank of America at 14821 7th Street in Victorville about 4 p.m. and passed the teller a note that read, "This is a bank robbery," according to the news release. The teller gave Marquez an undisclosed amount of money before he ran out of the bank and through a back alley.

The manager of the bank then followed the robber and called 911 from his cell phone, according to the news release.

When Sheriff's deputies got to the bank, they found the suspect and the manager walking west bound in the alley behind the bank, according to the news release. The suspect ran into the backyard of a house where he was arrested.

All of the money that was taken from the bank was recovered from the robber's front pocket.
