Updated: Bank Robbery Suspects Possibly Seen In Huxford, Atmore Woman Cleared

(Updated)Here are the latest developments in the search for two people that robbed a Flomaton bank on Monday:

An Atmore woman was apprehended and questioned last night as a suspect in the United Bank robbery, but she has been released and cleared of any involvement. And, a $5,000 reward has been announced for the capture and conviction of the suspects.

A vehicle with two suspects that matched the description of the suspects was spotted in Huxford, near the Escambia-Monroe County line on Wednesday.

On Wednesday night, a woman was picked up by authorities when they believed she was a suspect in the robbery.

“Numerous anonymous tips pinpointed Ms. (Wanda) Marshall to be the female suspect in the United Bank robbery,” said Jimmy Davis of the Flomaton Police Department. “Upon investigation of the tips with the FBI an arrest warrant was obtained.”

Marshall was apprehended in Canoe, Alabama, and questioned in the case. “Ms. Marshall was later cleared of any involvement in the robbery and released a short time later. At this time both suspects are still at large,” Davis said.

Flomaton Police and the FBI are still working to identify the man and woman that were  involved in the robbery. The pair passed notes to different tellers demanding money. They did not display a weapon.Tellers at the Wachovia Bank in Florala, Alabama, were shown the surveillance video from the Flomaton robbery, and they believe the couple shown are the same two people that robbed their bank last week. The Florala Police Department had originally developed suspects in the Wachovia robbery, but all of their suspects were later cleared.
