A man who was shot after allegedly robbing a Tulsa credit union has been arrested.

A man entered the Tulsa Teachers Credit Union, 140 E. Pine St., just before 1 p.m. Wednesday wearing a ski mask, an arrest report states. He 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 chased the robber and fired several shots at him after he refused 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.

Dehrain Eugene Berry Wilson, 22, 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 that worn by the man at the scene of the bank robbery, as well as 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 on Saturday on a single complaint of robbery with a dangerous weapon, jail records show. His bail has been set at $50,000.
