A 29-year-old woman charged in connection with a bank robbery in Vermont might also be behind five bank robberies in Connecticut, according to police.
Susan Braig has been arrested in connection with a bank robbery at Union Bank in Hardwick, Vermont around 1 p.m. on Sept. 6, 2012.
Tellers told police that the robber had a note demanding cash, police said. The note also said the robber had a gun.
Police said they searched, but did not find anyone and leads in the case were unsuccessful until mid-January, when detectives from the Connecticut State Police Major Crime Unit called Aaron Cochran, the chief of police in Hardwick.
On Feb. 5, Vermont police traveled to Westbrook and police compared photographs and other evidence, comparing a suspect Connecticut was looking at for five bank robberies in Connecticut with the suspect in the Union Bank robbery, police said.
The next day, police met with Susan Braig, 29, and her attorney and said Vermont authorities received information about the bank robbery in Union and a warrant was issued charging her with assault and robbery for the robbery at Union Bank.
