A suspect was taken into custody, police said, but offered no additional details of the arrest.

In West Deptford Thursday, police arrested a suspected bank robber at about 3 p.m. after the man had barricaded himself in his home.

West Deptford police said their suspect may be responsible for a string of recent South Jersey bank robberies, and a bank robbery Thursday in Burlington County.

West Deptford police did not specify if the robbery was the National Penn hold-up in Florence.

West Deptford and Florence police in separate Facebook posts said they would make public more information on Friday.

Authorities previously tied four summer bank robberies -- one in West Deptford and three in Harrison -- to the same gun-wielding man.
