MARY ESTHER, Fla. – The Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office said it has identified and arrested a suspect in the alleged attempted robbery of Eglin Federal Credit Union in Mary Esther last week.
According to an announcement by the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office (OCSO), Kirk Losey, 45, is now charged with attempted bank robbery as well as failure to register as a sexual offender. The OCSO said Losey has been living in Okaloosa County for two weeks.
The attempted bank robbery charge is connected to an alleged robbery attempt on August 8. The victim says a man handed her a note demanding money. After she went to give the note to a supervisor, the man reportedly left the building.
Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office investigators used video surveillance images, a citizen’s tip, searches, and witness information to help link Losey to the crime, the OCSO said.
According to the OCSO, Losey is a registered sexual predator in Florida. He is also charged with failure to register where he is staying in Okaloosa County.
