The sheriff's office posted the images to social media, which led to a call from Eden Prairie Police, who recognized the man as a known offender.

The 27-year-old suspect was arrested without incident at his Cologne residence. Investigators said some of the stolen money, clothes similar to those in the surveillance images and other evidence were found in the man's vehicle.
