Defaulter Runyan Confesses in Bank Heist Case
New York July 6 Cheater B Runyan the Wind bank teller confessed at length after detectives confronted him in Laura Carter’s Manhattan flat. He claimed he gave Carter 15000 dollars of the stolen funds and a bracelet and ring valued at 1000 dollars, while Carter denied taking any money beyond a 5000 dollar withdrawal she allegedly received. George W. Young, a Windsor Trust director, said Runyan had tried to straighten out the affair and would likely have returned the money if not compromised by stress.
