Vehic/Purs

Lucia Cristaudo was taken hostage during a robbery and died when the getaway other crashed during a subsequent police chase. Robert S. Custon, one of the robbery suspects, also died. Christopher M. Andrews and Custon had reportedly held up Midwest Cash, demanding money, jewelry and guns from Cristaudo, the store manager. Police cornered the men in the store, and Custon took Cristaudo hostage, using her as a human shield on his way to the parking lot. Andrews led police on a high-speed chase until the other crashed into a tree.
