Update: Car Involved in Shooting of Pregnant Bank Teller Found, Shooter Still at Large

This is the latest update on the shooting of a pregnant bank teller in Indianapolis, Indiana, this week. Katherin Shuffield, who is pregnant with twins, is still in critical condition, but her babies are said to be not in danger. Four men have been arrested in connection with the bank robbery and police are still searching for the actual shooter.

Indianapolis--Police found a gold Dodge Intrepid at Rick's Towing, in Indianapolis, at about 1 p.m., Thursday. Authorities had said they were looking for such a car in connection with Tuesday morning's robbery and shooting at Huntington National Bank.

The detective said the car smelled like a dye pack -- an antitheft device that banks keep with its money -- had exploded in or near the vehicle. Police had said they believed whoever robbed the bank picked up a dye pack as he grabbed money from the bank's drawers.

Police said one of the four arrestees gave investigators information about a man he said committed the robbery and shooting.

According to the report, James told police that the robbery was planned a couple of days in advance, and that on the morning of the robbery, he, Wilburn and "Milbrook" were in a gold Dodge Intrepid. James said Peterson was in a blue Honda Pilot, the other vehicle police say was involved in the case, according to the report.

James told police he was let out of the Intrepid before the robbery after he expressed concern about what was about to happen, according to thereport. Police said James told them that he returned to a duplex one of the homes police raided Wednesday -- shortly after the robbery and heard Milbrook, Peterson and Wilburn discuss what had happened.

Witnesses described the shooter as black, 6 feet 2 inches tall and weighing about 215 pounds. He was wearing a blue stocking cap, a darkface covering, a gray jacket, blue jeans and dark shoes withlight-colored heels, witnesses told police.
