Washington County District Attorney Jason Walsh announced on Monday that warrants have been issued for the arrest of two individuals from Wellsburg, West Virginia, in connection with the robbery on Wednesday, of the First National Bank on Route Nineteen in North Strabane Township. Walsh says the warrants are out for Kayla Pruett and Brandon Scerri. Authorities say they believe Scerri was the one who entered the bank and demanded money. They say the two were identified using their tattoos and driver’s license photos, along with the description of their car, a blue-colored Ford Focus. Walsh says Scerri got away with more than seventy-four-hundred-dollars in the robbery. Walsh stressed that these warrants are for the First National Bank robbery and not the one at Washington Financial in Washington two days earlier. He says though, there are similarities and the investigation is continuing. (PHOTO; North Strabane Twp Police)
