Sartorially challenged bank robber arrested

A brightly-dressed bank robbery suspect is behind bars, according to the FBI.

James Francis Deans, 27, of Hallandale Beach, was arrested on Friday and accused of robbing a Wells Fargo Bank branch at 6810 Miramar Parkway in Miramar on Thursday.



Deans was in federal custody and is expected to make his first court appearance on Monday in federal court in Fort Lauderdale, agents said.

The suspect was dressed to distraction as a gaudy golfer in mismatched plaid shirt and shorts with a cap and sunglasses when he robbed the bank.
