FREMONT, CA — Fremont Police have identified the three accused bank robbers arrested last week following a high-speed chase on I-880. Bryan Colston and Damario Crawford of Oakland, and Larisha Kilgore of El Cerrito are accused of holding up a credit union in the Fremont Hub. Their vehicle had been reported stolen from Hayward the previous week.

All three accused robbers are convicted felons, according to Fremont Police, "Colston was found to have a lengthy criminal history to include multiple prior felony convictions for robbery, carrying a loaded/concealed firearm, felon in possession of a firearm (two separate convictions), possession of a controlled substance while armed with a firearm (separate from above firearms convictions) and multiple probation violations.

"In addition, Colston had also been recently arrested by Pleasant Hill PD for Felon in possession of a Firearm in August of 2019 (that case is still pending). At the time of this bank robbery, Colston was out of custody and on “post release community supervision” (probation due to an early release from custody).
