Brothers get probation for ‘small-town easy' bank robbery
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — The second of two brothers has been sentenced for his role in a in Sand Lake which they incorrectly assumed would be 'small-town easy.' The haul wasn't that impressive either — a little more than $300, according to court records. Both brothers admitted to their roles in the robbery at the Independent Bank in Sand Lake, which they figured was an easy mark, court records show. Brothers charged in 'small-town easy' bank robbery On Wednesday, Christopher Moore was placed on probation for three years for the Dec. 30 bank robbery. He was also credited with 163 days spent in jail since his arrest. His younger brother, Nicholas Moore, was sentenced two weeks ago. He was also placed on probation for three years and must complete 100 hours on a work crew in lieu of jail. Both brothers were ordered to stay away from the bank. According to court records, Christopher Moore, 25, admitted to robbing the bank. Nicholas Moore, 19, admitted to scoping out the bank and serving as driver, records show. They selected Sand Lake because 'every time we go up there, it's kind of like a small-town easy way to escape,' records show. The pair, both from Mecosta County, were arrested within a day of the heist, which occurred at 5 3rd St. in Sand Lake, a small village of about 500 in northern Kent County. Investigators from multiple jurisdictions joined the search for the pair. Prior to the robbery, they visited the Meijer store in Cedar Springs because they needed masks, court records show. 'Nicholas said while at the Meijer store they got Covid masks and duct tape so that Christopher could wrap his hands with gloves on so that nobody could see his tattoos,'' a detective wrote in a probable cause affidavit. Police determined that a person matching the physical description of the suspect, and wearing similar clothing, was at the Meijer prior to the robbery. Police also determined he was at the store with a second person, court records show. A description of the vehicle, a maroon Chevrolet Tahoe, and license plate number helped police identify the Moore brothers, records show. Bank surveillance photos and photos from Meijer also helped. Search warrants were obtained for residences in Stanwood and Big Rapids. In interviews with police, Nicholas Moore said the pair had been talking and planning on robbing the bank because they needed the money. In announcing the robbery, a man wearing a mask, glasses and distinctive clothing handed the bank teller a note that read 'this is a robbery, no tracers, no dye packs,' court records show. 'The teller gave the subject all the cash he had in the register — $335.00.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
