State police ask for help identifying suspect in theft at Indiana County bank

Pennsylvania State Police are asking for the public’s help in identifying the suspect in a theft at an Indiana County bank.

Police say a woman arrived at S&T Bank in Burrell Township around noon on Tuesday.

The woman allegedly used a fake ID card to pose as another person. She then tried to deposit a fake check for $3,700 and withdrew $5,000 from the other person’s account.

Police say the woman then went to S&T Bank in Armagh and posed as another person.

Similar incidents have been reported in the Altoona, Ebensburg and Gallitzin areas, police say.

The woman is described as middle-aged and white with long, straight hair. Police say her fingernails were painted white during the incident in Burrell Township.
