"Buckeye Bandit" Pleads Guilty To Eight Local Bank Robberies

Franklin County Sheriff's Office

Federal prosecutors say the man authorities call the "Buckeye Bandit" has pleaded guilty to robbing eight central Ohio banks since 2013. 27-year-old Ikechi Emeaghara was shot and wounded by Columbus police last October when he allegedly pulled a gun on officers after a bank robbery. He typically wore an Ohio State University shirt and hat during the robberies.
