Authorities say robbers kidnapped the assistant manager of an Antelope Valley bank and held her overnight at her home - for more than 13 hours - before taking her to the bank and forcing her to open the vault.
Los Angeles County sheriff's Deputy Michael Rust says a man and a woman went to the worker's home about 6 p.m. Monday and held her at gunpoint.
They reportedly forced the woman to remove a large amount of money from the bank Tuesday morning.
The robbers then drove the woman back to her house and left her unharmed on a bed.
They fled in her 2008 BMW 330I, which is light blue with license plate number 6ALK682.
