November 15, 2005
FBI agents arrest a woman Tuesday who is suspected of robbing four banks in suburban Virginia while appearing to be talking on a cell phone. Candice Martinez, 19, is arrested just before 4am at a home in nearby Centreville, Virginia after an FBI agent saw a car nearby with license plates matching the ones they had been looking for. The FBI had issued a bulletin a few hours earlier saying Martinez and her boyfriend could be fleeing to Texas, New Mexico or New York. "It was a wonderful stroke of luck that [the agent] happened to spot that license plate, and everything unfolded safely and without incident," says Debbie Weirman, a spokesperson from the FBI. Martinez was filmed by security cameras walking up to tellers and demanding cash while appearing to be chatting on her cell phone. FBI Special Agent Ron Chavarro, who spotted the car agents were looking for, ordered two people out of the vehicle and they led investigators to a house nearby where Martinez was staying. Her boyfriend had been arrested a little while earlier. And it was not immediately clear whether charges would be filed against some other people who were with Martinez at the time of her arrest
