A family is facing several charges related to a bank robbery in Somerset County earlier this year, according to the county prosecutor.
Authorities say the robbery happened on Aug. 22 at a bank on Route 27 in Franklin Township. They say that a man, later identified as Michael Gaboff, walked into the bank and demanded money from multiple tellers. He took the money and rode off on a motorcycle, according to officials.
Gaboff was arrested Dec. 2 after a three-month investigation. He was charged with second-degree robbery and second-degree conspiracy to commit robbery.
Officials say that three of Gaboff’s family members are also facing charges related to the crime. Alan Gaboff, Sharon Gaboff and Jesse Gaboff were all charged with third-degree hindering.
