First National Rewards Robbery Apprehenders First National Bank of Oregon will deliver five checks totalling $2.500 to Oregonians who have assis­ ted law enforcement agencies in the apprehension of seven recent bank robbery suspects Each of the citizens will receive a check for $500. Rewards were given on the basis of citizen alertness during recent robberies dat­ ing from July through Octo­ ber 1974. Under the new program. First National will consider giving rewards to any citizen who provides information or assistance leading to the arrest of a person or persons who have participated in a holdup, theft or burglary of a First National branch office. Robert F. Wallace, presi­ dent of the statewide fi­ nancial institution, said the program was instituted be­ cause rewards to citizens are a very important incentive in gaining citizen support and cooperation. Furthermore. Wallace said outstanding citizen coopera­ tion has resulted in a record of 14 arrests in the 15 First National holdups committed during 1974. The amount of the reward will be determined after a careful evaluation of the circumstances of the citizen's involvement and cooperation. Factors determining the amount will also include the timeliness of the information provided to police, which is the key factor in an arrest. In any case. $500 will be the minimum reward amount. First National Bank of Oregon has 138 branch offices in its statewide system.
