Norristown Man, 'Missing' Phoenixville Mom Charged in Serial Bank Robberies

A Norristown man and Phoenixville woman were indicted this week on federal charges of felony bank robbery.

Christopher LeBlanc, 40 of Norristown is the son of the former mayor of Norristown, The Philadelphia Inquirer said.

Charged along with him is Elizabeth Kenneally, 25, of Phoenixville.

LeBlanc and Kenneally were arrested in November in connection with the bank robberies, Patch reported. They remain in Montgomery County Prison, having been unable to post bail, Philadelphia Magazine reported.

Kenneally, 25, was reported missing by her family in October, The Philadelphia Inquirer said, leading to a social-media campaign for information leading to her whereabouts.

However, after seeing reports that she was missing, Kenneally reached out to The Pottstown Mercury, telling them “she was not missing but did not desire to return to her family, The Mercury reported.

LeBlanc and Kenneally were taken into custody Nov. 4 at a Delaware motel, hours after police said they robbed a Citizens Bank in West Goshen Township, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported.

The pair are also accused of robbing a Citizens Bank in Audubon Township on Oct. 28 and a PNC Bank in East Goshen Township on Oct. 31, Philadelphia Magazine said.

All told, the pair stole $5,392, The Inquirer said.
