EXTON, Pa. (WPVI) -- Police are crediting an Action News viewer for providing a tip that helped police identify the man wanted for a bank robbery in Exton, Pa. earlier this week.

Action News aired video of the suspect, and police say a viewer identified the man as Adam David, 22, of the 3700 block of Coventryville Road in Pottstown.
