BANGOR – A 70-year-old man captured a short time after he allegedly robbed the Calais branch of the Machias Savings Bank was indicted Thursday by a federal grand jury.

Roger Langille, formerly of Princeton, faces up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine if convicted of bank robbery.

According to police, Langille, who he had been living in his Lincoln Town Car, entered the bank about 1:15 p.m. Oct. 22.

Calais police arrested Langille 15 minutes after he allegedly handed a note to a Machias Savings Bank teller that read: “This is a bank robbery – have gun in my jacket put money in bag or I’ll shoot you,” according to court documents.

Police did not find a gun in his possession.

Langille had the $3,500 from the robbery in his possession when he was arrested without incident at an auto repair shop in Calais, according to police.

Family and friends described Langille as a quiet man who had lived with his mother and father on the South Princeton Road for years. After his parents died, Langille sold the family house. He has not lived in Princeton for the past six months.

He is being detained pending trial at the Penobscot County Jail.

A trial date has not been set.

A Caribou man also was indicted Thursday on multiple charges in U.S. District Court in Bangor.

Robert H. Smith, 24, was indicted for possession of stolen firearms, being a felon in possession of firearms and an armed career criminal, bank fraud and interstate transport of a stolen vehicle.
