PUEBLO COUNTY, Colo. — Two suspects in a bank robbery in Pueblo County may have traveled to Denver, and the Pueblo County Sheriff’s Office is actively searching for them.
The suspects have been identified as 36-year-old Patrick James Bryom and 40-year-old Kortny Nicole Payne. The sheriff’s office said they are wanted in connection to a robbery at the U.S. Bank inside a Safeway store at 1017 N. Market Plaza on Friday.
They may be traveling in a late model white minivan with tinted windows and possibly an out-of-state license plate. They had allegedly entered the bank around 6:10 p.m. and the man gave the teller a note demanding money and stating he had a gun. The woman stood behind him during the interaction, the sheriff’s office said.
The suspects then left on foot with the undisclosed amount of money. The man never showed a weapon. Nobody was injured.
Bryom is described as a tall man with blonde or brown hair. He had a full beard and wore a black hoodie and black baseball cap.
Payne is about 5 feet, 8 inches tall with short brown hair and glasses. She was wearing a green baseball cap and black jacket.
The sheriff’s office said they believe the suspects may frequent or stay at or near Safeway and Walmart parking lots.
