Fugitive Surrenders Six Years After ATM Theft

KOKOMA, Ind. – A woman suspected of stealing almost $500,000 while servicing credit union and bank ATMs before disappearing six years ago walked into the police station Monday and gave herself up. Authorities had been searching for Cynthia Wismiller since November 2000, when they said she took $286,000 from six ATMs in the Kokomo area, and another $200,000 from her employer, Armored Services Inc., of South Bend. Police Det. Mike Banush said they had tracked Wismiller from cell phone calls from her two grown children to where she was living in Florida. “She knew that we were closing in on her,” Det. Banush told The Credit Union Journal.
