KISSIMMEE, Fla. (AP) – A 10-hour-standoff with two armed bank robbers ended Tuesday when police fatally shot one suspect and arrested the other, authorities said. Four hostages were unharmed.

The suspects had escaped the bank near Walt Disney World with one hostage Tuesday evening, but authorities cornered them in their getaway car, said Osceola County Sheriff Bob Hansell.

The male suspect then “used the hostage again as a shield to get into another vehicle,” Hansell said. “He tried to leave again and at that point he was taken down by one of our snipers.”

Deputies had been using cell phones to negotiate with the suspects, a man and a woman wearing masks, wigs and coats.

The standoff at the Mercantile Bank, a mile west of Disney, forced police to shut down the area, leaving some tourists confined to their hotels for much of the day.

The suspects held four hostages at one point, but released all but one by the time police blasted through the rear door of the bank using an explosive device.

The suspects then escaped with the hostage and drove away in a bank employee’s car, but they traveled less than a mile before street barricades stopped them.

Shots were fired at deputies but nobody was hurt, police said. The suspects had been holed up in the bank since Tuesday morning.

The first hostage was released when the robbers panicked when deputies arrived so quickly after the robbery, said sheriff’s spokeswoman Twis Lizasuain.

The second was freed in exchange for cigarettes and the third after deputies agreed to back their vehicles a few feet farther away from the bank, Lizasuain said.

Lizasuain said none of the released hostages was hurt, and the suspects have said they don’t intend to harm anyone.

The same bank was robbed Nov. 16, and investigators are still looking for two suspects, Lizasuain said.
