(CNN) A man who allegedly held five people captive during an eight-hour standoff at a Wells Fargo bank in St. Cloud, Minnesota, wanted a "big show," authorities said. Those held hostage in the bank said the suspect wanted the robbery to "go viral" and wanted to be a "martyr," according to a criminal complaint filed in Minnesota district court Friday. Cloud Police Department and the FBI simultaneously entered and arrested McNeary without incident. All of the hostages were bank employees, according to police.
