Fall River bank robber sentenced. How a teller's action helped police

A Florida man was sentenced this week for an armed robbery and bomb threat that occurred in August at a Fall River bank.

 

Domingo Agostini, 41, of Port Lucie, Florida, pleaded guilty and on Thursday, Jan. 8, at Bristol County Superior Court in Fall River was ordered to serve two to four years in state prison.

 

According to a release from the Bristol County District Attorney’s Office, Agostini’s charges stem from an Aug. 18, 2025, incident at Rockland Trust Bank at 855 Brayton Ave.

 

Fall River police responded to the bank at approximately 10:30 a.m., where a teller told them that a man approached her with a note written on a paper bag that stated, "I have a bomb" and then demanded $20,000 from the teller.
