WALB's Most Wanted: Willie Lee Hall

April 8, 2007

A big thanks to so many of you who called in after seeing a bank robber's picture. Remember this guy in the bright pink shirt? This is a bank surveillance picture of him robbing SunTrust Bank on Gillionville Road last Thursday.

After we showed you his photo that night, many of you called police and they picked him up the very next day. He's 56-year old Willie Lee Hall.

Police say he went to the bank to get a loan but was denied. Apparently, in desperate need of cash, he returned later that morning and threatened to kill the teller if she didn't give him seven thousand dollars.

Tonight, he's in jail charged with bank robbery. Thanks to you, our Most Wanted viewers, Mr. Hall gets to move to our busted wall.
