The Gwinnett County Police Department Robbery Unit has come forward on Dec. 5 with the names of two suspects who are accused of a string of ATM robberies amounting to hundreds of thousands of dollars stolen.
Gwinnett County officers from the West Precinct were dispatched on Sept. 9 to an ATM robbery at a bank in Norcross on Jimmy Carter Boulevard. At the scene, they learned that two male suspects had robbed a technician as he was making repairs to the ATM machine.
On Sept. 13 detectives became aware of a similar incident involving an ATM on Hampton Green in Duluth.
A third incident occurred at a bank in Forsyth County on Sept. 22. The Gwinnett County Robbery Unit and detectives in Forsyth compared notes afterwards and determined the robberies were connected.

Earl was charged with Robbery and booked into the Gwinnett County Jail on Nov. 27.
There is a warrant out for Lewis, who is also charged with Robbery.
