Man in court accused of attempted bank robberies A man appeared in court today, accused of trying to rob two south London banks with a replica assault rifle. Al-Fodday Fofanah, 30, is accused of trying to rob Santander and Barclays banks. He appeared at Camberwell Magistrates' Court and only spoke to confirm his name and date of birth. Witnesses said a man ran through the nearby George pub yesterday with an AK47-style weapon, chased by bank security and other members of the public. A Metropolitan Police spokesman said no shots were fired and no members of the public were injured. A hearing is expected to take place at Woolwich Crown Court on August 6. Fofanah was remanded in custody.
