WICHITA, KAN. - A Kansas man pleaded guilty Thursday to robbing a bank, according to U.S. Attorney Stephen McAllister.

Jeremy Vos, 21, Wichita, Kan., pleaded guilty to one count of bank robbery. In his plea, he admitted that on July 23, 2019, he robbed Intrust Bank at 5500 E. Harry. He gave the teller a handwritten note saying, "This is a robbery. No (dye) bags. I have a gun." Police arrested Vos the same day as the robbery.

Wichita police reported Vos had made a false report to 911 shortly before the robbery.

Sentencing is set for March 6. He could face up to 20 years in federal prison and a fine up to $250,000.
