Parma Heights man indicted for four bank robberies

A Parma Heights man was indicted for robbing four banks this summer.

Joshua Allen Duncan, 32, was indicted on four counts of bank robbery.

According to the indictment, Duncan robbed:

    PNC Bank at 330 E. Main Street in Ravenna on July 17.

    Dollar Bank at 7450 W. Ridgewood Dr. in Parma on Aug. 6

    KeyBank at 6284 Pearl Road in Parma Heights on Aug. 14

    Andover Bank at 1853 State Route 45 North, Austinburg on Aug. 21

If convicted, the defendant’s sentence will be determined by the Court after review of factors unique to this case, including the defendant’s prior criminal record, if any, the defendant’s role in the offense and the characteristics of the violation.  In all cases the sentence will not exceed the statutory maximum and in most cases it will be less than maximum.

This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Henry F. DeBaggis following an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and police departments of Ravenna, Parma and Parma Heights.

An indictment is only a charge. A defendant is entitled to a fair trial in which it will be the government’s burden to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
