Robbery suspect used police phone

Eugene -- Police in Oregon said a man who stopped by a police station to call his parents was arrested and charged with a bank robbery from the previous day.

Investigators said Nathan Alan Bramlage, 23, stopped by the Eugene police station lobby Wednesday to call his parents and an officer recognized him from security footage of the bank robbery at a Wells Fargo branch a little more than 24 hours earlier, The Register-Guard newspaper reported Thursday.

Detectives followed Bramlage out of the facility and arrested him without incident a few blocks away, police said.

Bramlage was taken to the Lane County Jail and charged with second-degree robbery an addition to violating probation for an earlier delivering heroin charge.

"I just assume that he didn't believe that we'd recognize him," Detective Ralph Burks said.
