2 Arrested In Collingswood Bank Robbery: Police

COLLINGSWOOD, NJ — Two men have been arrested and charged in connection with a bank robbery in Collingswood that took place last week.

Laque Hunter, 33, of Camden, has been charged with robbery in the July 24 robbery of Ocean First Bank on Haddon Avenue, Camden County Prosecutor Mary Eva Colalillo and Collingswood Police Chief Kevin Carey announced.

He and 47-year-old Anthony Livingston, also of Camden, have both been charged with conspiracy to commit robbery.

Police say Hunter walked into the bank, formerly known as Sun-Trust Bank on Haddon Avenue in Collingswood at about 2:48 p.m. and passed a demand note to a teller. After receiving an undisclosed amount of cash, Hunter ran out of the bank and got into a car being driven by Livingston, police said. No one was injured in the incident.

Livingston was arrested during a traffic stop by the Collingswood Police Department near Louis and Morton streets the same day, police said on Friday.

After police released surveillance photos from the scene, they received tips from members of the community. Based on those tips, Hunter was arrested near Broadway and Federal streets two days after the robbery, police said. Hunter and Livingston have both been detained pending trial.
