QUINCY -
A Quincy father, after spotting a very familiar face in a most-wanted photo on the Internet, went to police Wednesday and turned in his own daughter as the bank robber suspected in a Quincy robbery and two others in the last month.
Quincy police arrested 37-year-old Merredith Cunniff on Friday at her father's house on East Squantum Street in Quincy and charged her with the unarmed robbery of the Colonial Federal Savings Bank on Beach Street. The take in the July 16 robbery was $6,000.
Quincy police also suspect that Cunniff robbed two other banks: the Sovereign Bank in Marshfield on July 19 and the Mount Washington Bank in South Boston on July 12.
When he went to Quincy police, Cunniff's father, 67-year-old Edward Cunniff, looked at surveillance photos from both bank robberies and told police that he believed the woman in all of the photos is his daughter Merredith.
