PITTSBURGH (Newsradio 1020 KDKA) - Former PNC employee Jasmine Parrish pleaded guilty on Tuesday to her role in four armed bank robberies.

The 30-year-old Parrish admitted she and Donna Poremski stole $97,000 from PNC branches in West Mifflin, McCandless, Bloomfield and Penn Hills in 2018.

 They used disguises dressed in Middle Eastern attire with their faces covered.

A release from the Department of Justice in Western PA says Parrish “carried a cane and wore a surgical mask over her face with a tube that connected to an oxygen tank.

They gave a teller a note and threatened that they had a bomb.

They then forced employees into vaults at gunpoint and took the money.

Sentencing is scheduled July send with a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison.
