Huntsville man indicted for series of bank robberies in Madison County

A Huntsville man has been indicted by a federal grand jury for allegedly committing multiple bank robberies in Madison County. U.S. Attorney Prim F. Escalona and FBI Special Agent in Charge Carlton L. Peeples announced the charges.

The indictment, filed in U.S. District Court, accuses Lawrence Jones, 57, of Huntsville, of robbing four Regions Bank locations between May 2022 and January 2023.

The investigation was conducted by the FBI with assistance from the Huntsville Police Department and Madison Police Department. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Sara M. Judah and Russell Penfield.

It is important to note that an indictment only contains charges, and a defendant is presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
