A 28-year-old homeless man was arrested in connection to an east Naples bank robbery that occurred in April.

Collier County sheriff's detectives arrested Christopher David Cabrera after DNA tests linked him to the crime.

Cabrera was arrested in North Naples early Wednesday and charged with armed robbery, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, grand theft and committing a third-degree felony while wearing a mask.

The robbery occurred April 12 robbery at the Wells Fargo bank branch on Radio Road.

Detectives say Cabrera entered the bank around 3:30 p.m. wearing a mask over his face and a glove on his left hand. He was brandishing what looked like a handgun, reports said.

He ordered a customer to the ground and demanded money from bank employees. While demanding money he slammed the gun onto the counter, causing the weapon to break. Further investigation revealed the gun was plastic.

During their investigation, detectives located clothing in a Dumpster at a nearby apartment complex where a suspicious person was seen shortly after the robbery, according to arrest reports. The person matched the physical description of the suspect, reports said.

The T-shirt, pants, shoes and jacket found in the Dumpster all had red stains consistent with a dye pack that was enclosed with the money given to the robber. The dye pack exploded after the robber had left the bank, reports said.

The clothing was forwarded to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement Biology Laboratory for examination. A major DNA profile was obtained from the clothing, reports said.

DNA evidence from the clothing was collected and submitted to the federal Combined DNA Index System, or CODIS. Detectives were notified that the profile had been matched to Cabrera.
