PHOENIX – An 80-year-old man accused of robbing a credit union in Tucson has a decades-old criminal record for stealing from banks.
Robert Francis Krebs served more than 30 years in prison for a bank robbery near Orlando and has a 1966 conviction in Chicago for embezzling $72,000 from a bank where he worked as a teller.

In his latest arrest, authorities say Krebs walked into Pyramid Federal Credit Union in Tucson on Friday with a handgun, demanded an undisclosed amount of cash and walked away.
He was arrested the next day.
Krebs was booked on suspicion of armed robbery.
It's unclear whether Krebs has been assigned an attorney.
