POLICE ARREST PAIR OF BANK ROBBERS WANTED FOR MULTIPLE BANK ROBBERIES IN THREE STATES

(McHenry, MD) – Efforts by Maryland State Police investigators and other federal, state and local law enforcement result in the arrest of a pair of bank robbers suspected in multiple bank robberies in Maryland, West Virginia and Pennsylvania during the month of May.

The accused are identified as Corbin Jay Will, 39, of Garrett, Pennsylvania and Nichole Lynn Durst, 23, of Meyersdale, Pennsylvania. Both Will and Durst are in police custody in Pennsylvania, after suspected of robbing the First Summit Bank in Salix, Pa., First United Bank and Trust in Friendsville, Maryland, the WesBanco Bank in Bruceton Mills, Wes Virginia, the First National Bank in Logantown, PA and attempting another bank robbery at the M&T Bank in Tyrone, Pennsylvania. Charges are pending in all three states.

On Tuesday June 12, 2012, Will and Durst were taken into police custody by the Pennsylvania State Police from the Somerset Barracks after conducting a traffic stop on the suspected vehicle observed in multiple surveillance videos obtained during the robberies. The two occupants in the vehicle, Will and Durst, matched the description of the suspects wanted in the bank robberies.

Will and Durst were transported to the Pennsylvania State Police Somerset Barracks for questioning. Search warrants were obtained in Somerset County for the vehicle and their residences, which led to the discovery of several pieces of evidence, which were used in the commission of the crimes.

Investigators from the Maryland State Police McHenry Barracks were part of the federal, state, and local law enforcement effort to find the pair of robbery suspects. Deputies from the West Virginia Sheriff’s Office, Preston County, the Tyrone Pennsylvania Police Department, the Adams Township Police Department, troopers from the Pennsylvania State Police, Lamar Barracks, and the FBI also assisted with the investigation of the multiple bank robberies.
