DAVIE, Fla. (AP) — The FBI says a GPS tracker inside a money back led them to a bank robbery suspect in South Florida.

The agency says a man robbed the TD Bank in Davie on Monday.

WPLG reports the man handed a teller a written bomb threat before leaving the bank with money. The bank was evacuated while the Broward Sheriff’s Office investigated.

Authorities then used a GPS tracker placed inside a money bag to track the suspect who drove to Miami-Dade County.

The FBI says the man was found a short time later at a warehouse. He was arrested, but his name has not been released.
