A man’s unique facial hair was his downfall after police say he robbed a bank Wednesday. Officers were called to the First Merchants Bank at 101 S. Country Club Road at about 2:15 where tellers said a suspect pointed a gun at him. A photo of the gunman gleaned from bank surveillance video was distributed to law enforcement and police identified and then found 54 year old Robert Cates of 800 East Fifth Street.
