A 20-year-old man has been sentenced in U.S. District Court in South Bend after being found guilty of bank robbery.

It was back in December of 2020 when prosecutors say Shamond Jenkins, 20, of South Bend went to a bank and handed over a note threatening to kill an employee if the employee did not give him cash.

As employees were gathering cash out of the teller drawers to give to Jenkins, he repeatedly told them he was prepared to kill them.

He fled with the cash and was arrested in January 2021. Jenkins was sentenced to 100 months in prison, 2 years of supervised release and ordered to pay nearly $2,000 in restitution.
