Westlake Bank Robbery Suspects Extradited
Trevor J. Spurlock and Tommy L. Gallagher sent to Westlake to face charges
Two men accused of robbing a bank in Westlake were extradited from West Virginia last week, The Coschocton Tribune reports.
Tommy L. Gallagher, 36, and Trevor Spurlock, 21, were at a campground near Milton, W. Va. when police were called on a report of a disturbance, The Huntington Dispatch reported.
The two men face robbery charges for the robbery at Key Bank on Columbia Road on Friday. The Herald-Dispatch reports that one of the men said he "Was just looking for some money and freedom ... Thought we'd hit one or two more. That would have got me what I needed to start on a straight path."
Our news partners at WEWS News Channel 5 report that the two men worked for a traveling carnival company.
