CUMBERLAND — A West Virginia man was arrested in connection with the recent robbery of a pedestrian on Main Street in Westernport, according to Cumberland Police.

Following arrest processing, Kratz posted bond of $5,000 set by a district court commissioner for his pre-trial release.
The May 28 incident was investigated by the Allegany County Sheriff's Office and a warrant for Kratz's arrest was issued June 1, according to Maryland court records.
