A stand-off northeast of Shelby with a person possibly connected to the Thursday morning robbery of a bank there, ended with one-person dead, and no injuries to law enforcement. According to Shelby County Sheriff Mark Hervey, a man whom deputies had pursued following the bank robbery to a home in the vicinity of 200th and Juniper Streets, was found deceased inside the residence. His body was discovered after authorities made entry into the home just after 4-p.m., following a stand-off that lasted for more than 3 -hours. Hervey said there were no shots fired during the stand-off, either by the person in question or law enforcement.  The robbery which led to the incident happened at around 11:50-a.m., at the Shelby County State Bank, in Shelby.

Bank employees reportedly told investigating officers that the robber did not display a gun during the incident. It’s unclear how much, if any, money was taken during the robbery. Officers from at least five counties…including both Cass County K-9 units: Deputy Josh McLaren and his partner Mufasa, and Deputy Kyle Quist, along with his partner Kane…were on the scene, along with the Iowa State Patrol’s Tactical Team, agents with the FBI, Shelby County Sheriff’s Office, Harlan Police and the Iowa Dept. of Transportation’s Motor Vehicle Enforcement Division.

Additional details, including the man’s name are not available.
