MA Couple Wanted in Multiple States for Bank Robbery

By ELIZABETH JANNEY (Patch Staff

A Massachusetts couple wanted in bank robberies up and down the East Coast recently struck in Maryland, according to the Aberdeen Police Department.

Authorities identified the suspects in the Oct. 16 Bank of America robbery in Aberdeen, MD, as Joseph E. Carrier, 37, and his wife, Jenny D. Carrier, 37, of Quincy.

The identification came after Aberdeen Police released surveillance photos from the robbery, and officials say they have since obtained arrest warrants for the couple.

Joseph Carrier is also accused of robbing a Wells Fargo Bank in Palm City, FL, last Monday, and the couple is accused of robbing The Country Bank in Ludlow on Sept. 28.

The Carriers are possibly traveling in a stolen Buick Encore that is dark in color with partial Massachusetts tag 2655, police say. It is likely the same vehicle the couple was reportedly seen leaving the Ludlow robbery last month.

There may be multiple dogs in the vehicle, according to police, who advised not making contact with the fugitives.

Anyone who sees the Carriers is asked to contact Detective Alexander of the Aberdeen Police Department at 410-272-2121, or Ludlow Police at 413-583-8305. All tips are confidential.
