The complaint further states that upon learning that the suspect wore a silicone “old man” mask, FBI agents established surveillance at Sartin’s apartment.  The GPS tracker alerted authorities as Sartin arrived home.  As Sartin was taken into custody, authorities recovered an iPhone, a tie and a pair of sunglasses which matched the description of items worn by the Amegy Bank robbery suspect.  Authorities subsequently reviewed video surveillance of Sartin’s apartment complex and discovered that Hathorn, Sartin’s roommate, had arrived shortly after Sartin and proceeded to enter the apartment complex recreation room carrying a blue bag.  Surveillance video showed that Hathorn hid the bag behind the sofa in the recreation room and was observed peering out the window in the direction of where Sartin was being arrested.  Law enforcement officers were able to recover the blue bag which contained the “old man” mask, three ball caps used in prior robberies, $8,100, GPS tracker and the demand note from the Amegy Bank robbery.  The complaint alleges that Hathorn had assisted Sartin by meeting him after the Amegy Bank robbery and taking custody of the mask and money derived from the robbery.

Sartin and Hathorn were arrested based on states charges related to aggravated robbery.  Sartin remained in state custody while Hathorn was released on bond.  FBI agents arrested Hathornbased on the federal criminal complaint.  They remain in custody pending a detention and probable cause hearing before a U.S. Magistrate Judge next week in San Antonio.  Hathorn and Sartin face up to 20 years in federal prison upon conviction.
