An undisclosed sum of money was taken from the bank as the duo escaped in a blue Chevrolet, which was found on fire minutes after the robbery. The getaway car had been stolen from a dealership in a nearby town and it is believed the pair switched vehicles in the aftermath.
Police are continuing to investigate the case.
