The trial of accused bank robber Derrick M. Collins has been postponed until Sept. 13.

The former assistant football coach at Porters Chapel Academy, Collins, 45, 170 Shannon Lane, was indicted for armed robbery in May by the Warren County Grand Jury.

Circuit Judge M. James Chaney will preside over the trial, in which prosecutors will seek to prove that Collins robbed the Britton and Koontz Bank on U.S. 61 North of about $3,000 on Dec. 14, and fled from deputies, leading them on a high-speed chase from U.S. 61 to Mississippi 27 and on to Warriors Trail, where he crashed into an investigator’s cruiser and was arrested.

Collins initially was scheduled for trial Aug. 29.

Court documents show that Collins had felony convictions for robbery and uttering a forgery in the mid-1990s. He was not a classroom teacher at PCA, and a day after his arrest was no longer an employee at the private school.
