SHELTON - Shelton Police Wednesday arrested 52-year-old Shawn Fardy of Bridgeport for a bank robbery that occurred Tuesday at People's Bank.
The arrest stems from an anonymous tipster who stated he recognized Fardy after reading the article in the Connecticut Post. The caller also stated that he recognized the vehicle depicted in the article as Fardy’s vehicle.
Detectives canvassed Fardy’s last known address in Bridgeport and located the vehicle parked on a side street. Fardy was inside the vehicle as well. After detectives interviewed Fardy he was taken into custody and transported to the Shelton Police Department.
Fardy was charged with robbery 3rd degree and larceny 4th degree. He was held on a $100,000 bond and was to appear today at Derby Superior Court.
***The charges in the press release are merely accusations, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.***
