2 men federally indicted in connection to bank robbery in small eastern Nebraska town

Two men have been arrested in connection to a bank robbery that occurred earlier this year in Cedar Bluffs, Nebraska. Bruce Dortch, 30, and Dontae Orduna, 35, both from Omaha, were indicted by a federal grand jury on charges related to their involvement in the robbery at Community State Bank.

On January 14, the suspects entered the bank armed with handguns and forced employees to withdraw an undisclosed sum of money from the bank's vault. This brazen act prompted a swift investigation by local authorities and federal agencies.

The Saunders County Sheriff's Office, in collaboration with the Nebraska DMV Fraud Unit, was able to identify a suspect vehicle linked to the robbery. This identification allowed the FBI to deepen their investigation, which included executing search warrants and obtaining court orders.

Dortch and Orduna were apprehended by the FBI and Omaha Police SWAT unit on unrelated charges on March 12. Following their arrest, they were federally indicted on charges connected to the bank robbery that shocked the small community.

Both men now face serious legal repercussions as a result of their actions, which have drawn attention from law enforcement and local residents alike.
