Man who listed ‘robbery’ as occupation sentenced
RAPID CITY, S.D. — A 60-year-old Rapid City man has been sentenced to four years in prison for robbing a bank in the city. Police said Lonnie Pannell walked into the downtown Dakotah Bank on Feb. 5 without a weapon and demanded money. He got away with about $2,800.
Pannell was arrested less than 24 hours later when his car ran out of gas near Chadron, Neb. Court documents said that when Pannell was booked into jail, he named “robbery” as his occupation.
Pannell, who also goes by the last name King, pleaded guilty in July.
