A woman suspected of robbing a Macon bank earlier in the week was arrested Friday, according to news release from the Macon Police Department.

Following a tip from Crimestoppers, Macon Police Department detectives and the Southeast Regional Fugitive Task Force arrested 26-year-old Tameskia Nicole Moore Friday at her home in College Park, the release stated.
