Carolyn Elizabeth Johnson {BSO}
A Coral Springs woman is facing felony burglary and assault charges after allegedly slapping a Chase Bank teller in the face with a check.
According to an arrest affidavit filed by the Coral Springs Police Department, Carolyn Elizabeth Johnson, 55, was identified as the suspect in a May 5 incident that began as a disagreement with a teller of the Chase Bank located at 8975 West Atlantic Boulevard.
CSPD records show that Johnson initially entered the public area of the bank but then reached over the teller counter into a restricted area after becoming frustrated that she couldn’t cash a check due to bank policy.
A warrant for Johnson’s arrest alleges that, angered she was told she would be unable to cash the check, she reached over the counter and hit the teller in the face with the check, then continued arguing before leaving the scene.
Surveillance footage reviewed by the police confirmed both the victim’s claims and the statements of witnesses.
The arrest records explain that Johnson’s actions constituted a burglary with battery because she entered a non-public area within the bank with the intent to commit battery.
An arrest warrant was issued on June 10, and on June 16, Johnson was taken into custody and transported to the Broward County Main Jail. She was later released after posting a $15,000 bond.
