FORKS, N.D. (AP) – A husband and wife accused of robbing a Grand Forks bank last month have been charged in federal court.

Twenty-year-old Johnny Patrom of Springfield, Mo., and his 18-year-old wife, Amanda Patrom, are accused of holding up Bank Forward on the morning of July 6. They have not been asked to enter a plea.

Court documents show that Johnny Patrom entered the bank, displayed a handgun and demanded money. Authorities say he got away with about $9,000.

Amanda Patrom allegedly entered the bank on two separate occasions prior to the robbery and told her husband how many employees were in the bank.

A detention hearing for Amanda Patrom, who is pregnant, is scheduled next week in Grand Forks.
