A couple accused of robbing a bank in Ohio were caught after they posted selfies with the stolen money on Facebook.
John Mogan, 28, and Ashley Duboe, 24, are charged with the August 24 robbery of Savings Bank in Ashville, a town 20 miles south of Columbus. Police say Mogan entered the wearing a black hoodie, handed the teller a note and left with an undisclosed amount of money.
A week later clueless Mogan posted photos to his Facebook page with a huge wad of cash wedged in his mouth.
Although Mogan has very recognizable tattoos on his face and neck, investigators allege Duboe applied makeup to cover them before driving him to the bank. The tip led police officials to Mogan and his photos, breaking the case wide open. Mogan was on parole for that robbery when he was arrested for this newest one.
Mogan was released just a few months earlier after serving five years for robbing another bank.
