DNA Leads Vt. Police to Alleged Armed Robber

Hancock, Vermont - September 17, 2009

Vermont State Police say they've caught an armed robber with the help of DNA.

Twenty-three-year-old Adam Racine, currently of Middlebury, was arrested Wednesday for allegedly committing the armed robbery at J.D.'s Quick Stop on Route 100 in Hancock on Aug. 19. DNA evidence recovered near the scene matched a sample obtained from Racine. Workers at the store reported that Racine was in the store several times the day of the robbery.

Racine is being held on $50,000 bail. He's charged with felony assault and robbery and is due in court this afternoon.
