The Incident

As per reports, a day prior to his wedding, a Texas man apparently robbed a bank and later told authorities that he did it because he wanted to pay for the reception hall and his wife's ring. The bank robbery incident happened on October 4 morning in Groveton in the US State of Texas. The man, identified as Heath Bumpous, turned himself in late October 4 evening after his fiancée noticed that it was her to-be groom who was in the CCTV images which police posted on social media. Trinity Country  Sheriff Woody Wallace has announced the arrest of Heath Bumpous in a Facebook post.

Reports say that the wedding was scheduled for Saturday but it is not known if the wedding happened as planned. County sheriff said Bumpous has confessed to the bank robbery.
