Police: Conn. Woman Holds Up Dunkin' Donuts, Rides Off On Bicycle

WILLIMANTIC, Conn. (CBSNewYork/AP) -- Police in Connecticut have arrested a woman they say held up a coffee shop at gunpoint and a man who allegedly pedaled her away from the scene on a bicycle.

A worker at a Willimantic Dunkin' Donuts called 911 at 3 a.m. Thursday to report that he had been robbed by an armed woman who was whisked away on a bike.

Officers with a police dog searched the area and found a fake gun and the bicycle operator hiding in an alley. The woman was found in a trash can, hiding under a pile of garbage.

Kiara Wilson is being held on $150,000 bail on charges including robbery. Daniel Henderson is being held on $100,000 bail on charges including conspiracy to commit robbery.

Both face arraignment Friday. It could not be determined if they have lawyers.
