On Jan. 19, police were sent to the TD Bank on South River Road for a report of a robbery.

Upon arrival, officers determined, upon speaking with employees, that a woman walked into the bank and demanded money from a teller. She claimed to have a weapon, but none was shown. The suspect took a quantity of cash and fled the scene, according to an alert that was issued later that day.

Police Chief John Bryfonski noted that police zeroed in on Brasley as a potential suspect earlier this week. She was arrested Thursday around 9:30 p.m. by Manchester Police.

Brasley was arraigned on Friday and is currently being held on $10,000 cash/surety bail by the Valley Street Jail until her probable cause hearing on March 1.

Bryfonski, in a statement, said he wanted to thank the Manchester Police Department for their assistance with this case.
