Tulsa, OK -

After an ongoing investigation, a Tulsa Police officer has been arrested for robbery.

Marvin Blades, Jr., was reportedly taking money from Hispanic citizens in North Tulsa.

Undercover narcotics officers posed a sting operation Friday night.

An undercover officer posed as a citizen, and Blades pulled over the officer. Blades told the undercover officer to get out of the car and to leave his wallet inside and wait at the back of the car.

When the traffic stop was over, there were six 100 dollar bills missing from the undercover officer's wallet.

Surveillance officers followed Blades, then arrested him at 500 E Pine.

Officers found several 100 dollar bills in his pants pocket that matched the serial numbers from the undercover officer's wallet.

Blades was assigned to the Gilcrease Division.

He is free on $25,000 bond and is suspended on pay pending investigation.
