Three bank robbery suspects are behind bars in Horry County. Police say they were captured with the help of new technology.

Henry Hemingway and Freda Williams were arrested in St. Petersburg, Florida.

Richard Livingston was taken into custody Friday morning at a hotel in Myrtle Beach.

Police say on February 20th, at the Waccamaw Bank in Conway, one of the men showed the teller a gun, while the other jumped over the counter and grabbed money from a drawer.

To find them, police used a new technology called "Coplink." It's an artificial intelligence software that can identify suspects based on information entered by other law enforcement officers.
