Police arrested a man and a woman on Thursday afternoon wanted for allegedly robbing a York Township bank branch earlier in the week.
A contingent of officers - made up of York Area Regional Police and the York County Quick Response Team - went to Walnut Ridge Apartments in Dallastown and arrested the pair, according to a news release.
Daryl Nathaniel "Nate" Ragan, 23, and Michele Lynn Caughy, 24, were wanted for robbing the Sovereign Bank branch, 2690 S. Queen St., on Tuesday, police said.
York Area Regional Police Sgt. Rod Varner said that during the robbery, which took place just before 9:30 a.m., Ragan walked into the branch and displayed a gun, while Caughy waited outside to drive the getaway vehicle.
Varner would not say how police developed Ragan and Caughy as suspects.
Officers "made entry" into the apartment, and found Ragan and Caughy, who offered no resistance, Varner said.
Police found money believed to be from the robbery, according to the news release.
Ragan and Caughy were charged with robbery - threat of immediate injury, robbery - taking property by force, theft by unlawful taking and receiving stolen property, according to court records.
Anyone with information on the robbery is asked to call Detective Donald Hopple at 741-1259.
