A man who was shot after reportedly robbing a Tulsa credit union has been arrested.
Dehrain Eugene Berry Wilson, 22, entered the Tulsa Teachers Credit Union, 140 E. Pine St., just before 1 p.m. Wednesday wearing a ski mask, an arrest report states.
Wilson then jumped over a counter and demanded money from bank employees, the report said.
He then placed an undisclosed amount of cash into a backpack before heading to another counter to seize additional money from the cash drawers, the report said.
According to the report, a security guard then chased Wilson and fired several shots at him after refusing to comply with orders to surrender.
About 15 minutes later, EMSA officials responded to a call that someone who had been shot in the arm was in the 1600 block of North Greenwood Avenue, police said.
Wilson was discovered on the floor of a home in that area and transported to a local hospital with a gunshot wound to his left arm.
During a search of the home, police found clothing that matched those worn by the man placed at the scene of the bank robbery and large amounts of cash stashed in a red backpack, the report said.
Police also found a loaded revolver and a black ski mask outside a fenced yard.
Wilson was booked into the Tulsa Jail Saturday on a single complaint of robbery with a dangerous weapon, jail records show. His bail has been set at $50,000.
