Wilmington, DE – Delaware State Police have arrested Gregory Collins, age 65, from Wilmington, in connection with a robbery at Citizens Bank earlier today.
Troopers were dispatched at approximately 10:05 a.m. on Thursday to the Citizens Bank on Marsh Road in Wilmington regarding a robbery incident.
