Police Arrest Last of 6 in Huntington Bank Heist

After an armed standoff that continued into the evening Wednesday, police arrested the last of six people on suspicion of robbing a bank earlier in the day in Huntington Beach.

A police SWAT team surrounded a Long Beach house throughout the evening, with the last two suspects eventually surrendering. No shots were fired.

At about 3:30 p.m. Wednesday, six people stormed the Bank of Yorba Linda branch, brandishing weapons and ordering seven employees and several customers to the floor. They took an undisclosed amount of cash and fled in two cars.

Huntington Beach police stopped one car headed north on the San Diego Freeway soon after the heist at the 7th Street exit in Long Beach. They arrested a man and a woman, Liston Oswanio David, 32, of Los Angeles and Tracy Lorraine Hark, 33, of Carson, on suspicion of possession of stolen property.

Later, a Seal Beach officer spotted another vehicle that matched the description of a car in the robbery and followed it to 1024 Bennett St. in Long Beach. Two people fled on foot and were quickly apprehended. Two others ran into a nearby apartment, where a standoff continued until they surrendered at 10:30 p.m.

The four men arrested in Long Beach on suspicion of bank robbery were Marlin Edward Henderson, 26; Nicholas Rackley, 19; Jason Franklin, 23; and Brae Tucker, 19, all of Long Beach.

All six are being held at Huntington Beach Jail, police said, and charges are expected to be filed today. Police said they are still investigating the case.
