CLEVELAND — Federal marshals say the case of one of the biggest bank robberies in Ohio history has been solved following the death earlier this year of the man they say was responsible.
Authorities say 20-year-old Theodore Conrad was a bank teller at the Society National Bank in Cleveland in 1969 when he walked out with a paper bag containing $215,000.
That’s the equivalent of more than $1.7 million in 2021 dollars.
The U.S. marshals service said Friday that authorities had confirmed that Conrad had been living “an unassuming life” since 1970 under a different name until his death of lung cancer in May.
