DeWitt man charged with 4th bank robbery released without bail

May 6th, 2020

Syracuse, N.Y. -- New York’s new bail law is proving timely for a DeWitt man charged with committing his fourth bank robbery in the last 14 years.

Christopher M. Seamans, 41, who has served time in prison for three bank robberies, was released from jail without bail Tuesday after being charged in a bank heist near Albany on Friday.

Seamans appeared briefly before Albany County Court Judge William Carter on robbery and grand larceny charges Tuesday in connection with the robbery of Pioneer Savings Bank in Colonie. Carter then ordered Seamans released on his own recognizance -- a promise to return to court when required.
