COLUMBIA, MO. -- Three people from northeast Missouri are the suspects in a central Missouri bank robbery late last week.

Columbia police are looking for the three they believe are responsible for holding up the Merchants and Farmer's bank at 4:33 p.m. last Friday.

According to www.centralmoinfo.com, the first suspect is Jeffrey Heckman, 25, of Macon. He is 6 feet tall, weighing 170 pounds with short brown hair and blue eyes.

The second suspect is believed to be Jacob Norris, 23, of Macon.

He is 5’11” tall, weighing 155 pounds.

The third bank robbery suspect being sought is Alexia Baker, 23, of Shelbyville.

She is 5’3” tall, 115 pounds with shoulder length brown hair.

Police said one of the men entered the Columbia bank and slid a note to the teller demanding money.

The note also indicated he was armed. The suspect walked out of the bank with an undisclosed amount of money and headed south from the area.

Columbia police say Heckman, Norris and Baker should be considered armed and dangerous.

Anyone with information on their whereabouts is asked to contact the Columbia Police Department.
