The suspects said that there was another accomplice, Mr. “Richy” last name unknown , age about 30, still at large.

The two suspects said that they could not get the money out of the ATMs because they did not know how to open them and after yanking the ATM units out of the wall the alarm went off. The duo panicked and left the scene in a hurry.
