The suspect allegedly fled the apartment after the robbery. Officers from the Lev Tel Aviv station in the Yarkon district opened an investigation after the robbery was reported, identified the suspect and tracked down his address. They entered his apartment and arrested him there the same night.

A search turned up evidence and cash that police believe link him to the robbery. He was taken to the station for questioning.
