SPOKANE, Wash. – A group of men allegedly jumped a patron of Wheatland Bank after he exited the building on Tuesday.

Court documents report that Jaeshon Farmer, Rashaud Lightner and Chase Wilson were amongst a group of approximately six men who chased a bank patron toward his car and demanded the $100 he was holding and pepper sprayed him.

Farmer, Lightner and Wilson were arrested later that day by a combination of Spokane Police Department officers and park rangers.

Officers found cash that matched the currency that was withdrawn from the bank and stolen from the patrol earlier on Tuesday according to court documents.

Farmer, Lightner, Wilson and a minor are currently facing robbery charges.
