Police arrested two men in South San Francisco roughly an hour after they allegedly robbed a bank on Alum Rock Avenue, a San Jose police spokesman said Tuesday.

The robbery occurred around 4:10 p.m. Monday at a Bank of America at 2300 Alum Rock Ave. in San Jose, Officer Jermaine Thomas said. The two suspects took cash and fled.

An investigation into the robbery led police to South San Francisco, where they apprehended the two men in their car, Thomas said. There was no chase and no weapons were involved, he said.

The suspects have been identified as Marcos Alberto Cruz, 40, and Robert Ortiz Longoria, 43. Both are Salinas residents.

The investigation into the robbery is ongoing, Thomas said.
