Authorities in Vermont are on the hunt for two suspects, a man and a woman, following the string of armed robberies yesterday—which included a failed attempt at a local marijuana dispensary. After demanding marijuana and money at the Rolling Twenties Dispensary in Rockingham, the two fled in a blue 2021 Chevrolet Silverado, with New Hampshire plates "527 0106," last seen heading into Massachusetts from Cheshire County, New Hampshire, according to NBC Boston.
The same Chevy Silverado and its occupants are believed to be related to additional armed robberies at two banks in Bellows Falls and Brattleboro, local police departments are confirming these suspicions as the investigations progress. Standing about 5'9", the male suspect was adorned with a white or light gray long-sleeved Henley shirt, complemented by a dark undershirt, gray sweatpants, brown work boots, and a black ball cap accented with a white stripe on the brim. A bulge on his right hip raised alarms of a possible concealed firearm.
The MYNBC5 report described his accomplice as a 40-year-old, heavyset white woman of about 4'11", who wore a dark blue or black hooded fleece, tight blue jeans, a brown leather belt, red hair concealed under a short-brimmed black cap, and like her companion, a black N-95 mask.
As the investigation continues, the Vermont State Police caution the public to regard the suspects as armed and dangerous, having been seen wearing blue latex gloves and dark sunglasses in addition to their already described attire. Details shared from the MyChamplainValley report encourage anyone with information to come forward, reaching out to Detective Sgt. Dan Hall at the Vermont State Police or submitting tips anonymously online.
Vermont State Police are asking the community to provide any possible leads, urging anyone with information about these incidents to call 802-722-4600 or email Sgt. Hall at [email protected]. As locals and authorities keep an eye out, the well-being and safety of the community loom paramount in the face of these unresolved and disconcerting disturbances in their peace.
