Robbery Arrest Update – Granville National Bank

On April 6, 2026, at around 3:06 PM, the Granville Police Department responded to a robbery at Granville National Bank, 328 S. McCoy Street. Officers secured the scene and no injuries occurred.

With help from the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department, Illinois State Police, Spring Valley PD, Ladd PD, Oglesby PD, and Bureau County Sheriff’s Department, we were able to identify and apprehend 58-year-old David L. Ragazincky of Granville within hours. During the robbery, a knife was displayed and cash was taken from bank tellers. Evidence related to the robbery was recovered.

The case has been transferred to the FBI, and Ragazincky is in custody at Putnam County Jail, facing federal bank robbery charges under 18 U.S.C. § 2113(a).

We want to thank the public for their support.

🔥🚒 From Your Friends at the HFD 🚒🔥
Updated-**BURN BAN IN EFFECT 2/17-TBD**

Alright everybody.. we know it’s been a long, brutal winter. Cold, gray, cabin fever at DEFCON 1. Now the sun peeks out and suddenly everyone’s ready to clean up the yard, light a match, and send it like we’re hosting the Midwest edition of Burning Man.

Before you do.. pump the brakes. 🛑

Right now, we’re strongly ADVISING against any type of open burning. That means brush piles, open land burning, fence rows, tree rows, or basically anything that isn’t locked down and contained in a burn barrel, fire pit, or grill/smoker. And if you’re enjoying a recreational fire, make sure it’s completely extinguished when you’re done .. cold, dead, and done.

Here’s the deal.. we’ve got windy conditions, bone dry vegetation, and low humidity. That combo turns a “quick burn” into a runaway fire real fast. Fires spread hard, threaten homes, put neighbors at risk, and stretch fire department resources when we’d rather be ready for true emergencies like cats in trees.

Right now, there is NOT a burn ban in effect. If Mother Nature decides to crank things up even more, that call will be made at the district level, and we’ll let everyone know immediately.

So let’s keep it smart, keep it safe, and keep the flames where they belong… In a Olympic cauldron 🔥

Thanks for helping us look out for the whole community. 👊
