Police arrested a Georgia man whose visit to a local bank prompted an evacuation.
It happened when he allegedly sent one of the bank tellers a road flare via the vacuum tube in a drive-thru lane last month. Police say the flare looked like a destructive device.
Michael Aaron Bass, 26, is accused of simple assault and distributing a hoax device in connection with the incident, the

Bass received the cash and that’s when he’s accused of pulling a road flare from his motorcycle and sending it up the vacuum to the teller, authorities say.
