GREENVILLE, SC (FOX Carolina) -
Greenville County deputies said they are investigating an armed robbery that happened at a Pelzer home after the victim was followed from a local bank by the subject.
Deputies said they were called to the Alverson Road home about 2:30 p.m. Wednesday after the victim said an unidentified man rushed him, pointed a handgun at him and demanded money.
According to investigators, the victim was at a local bank drive-through line when he saw a disturbance in another lane by an unidentified customer. They said the victim finished his business, then went to a family member's home in Pelzer.
