SCS/HB 254 - Under this act, it is a Class B felony to physically take or attempt to take property from a person when the property is owned by or in the custody of a financial institution. Physically taking property from a person is currently a Class D felony, unless the property is $25,000 or more in which case it is a Class C felony. Financial institution is defined as a bank, trust company, savings and loan association, or credit union. This provision is identical to a provision of SCS/HCS/HB 807 (2015). MEGHAN LUECKE
