ST. CLOUD, Minn. — A Waite Park man was sentenced Thursday to more than six years for an attempted 2021 St. Cloud bank robbery in which he took multiple hostages.
Ray McNeary, 39, took five hostages at a Wells Fargo bank on May 6, 2021. The criminal complaint said he was speaking to a bank manager about potential fraud on his account, and became upset when the manager couldn't find his account.
The manager hit the silent panic alarm and several customers fled the building, but five employees remained inside. McNeary then demanded $60,000 in cash from the vault.
