- Alfred Lee was detained on Wednesday night.
- The Subway restaurant in the Heights had been targeted multiple times before.
Sandwich artists and aficionados can rest easy tonight: The Heights sandwich bandit is in police custody.
The police arrested Alfred Lee on Wednesday night. The serial robber has been targeting the same Heights-area Quiznos and Subway shops since Nov. 2011.
True to form, an armed Lee attempted to rob cash from a Subway near Heights Boulevard and I-10. Yeah, the exact same store that he had allegedly held up on at least three prior occasions.
But this time, officers with the Central Tactical Unit were watching. They swooped in and nabbed Lee before he could get away.
