Mom Takes Baby With Her to Rob Bank

DALLAS (AP) _ Federal officials say a woman robbed a Dallas bank with her 4-month-old premature baby in the getaway car.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office said Wednesday the baby boy — who was on oxygen because he was born prematurely — was exposed to noxious fumes from the exploding dye packet in the money but was not injured. The baby’s in the custody of a family member.

A federal grand jury indicted Inequa Rushing on bank robbery and conspiracy to commit bank robbery charges Tuesday. Her attorney didn’t immediately return a call Wednesday.

After the Jan. 19 robbery, police found Rushing’s purse in the bank parking lot. Dye-stained money and Rushing’s identification were inside. Rushing and the getaway car driver were arrested later.
