Mountlake Terrace Police say he also robbed a barista at Roosters Espresso on September 13th. "He looked at me and said today is gonna be a bad day for you and then held the gun up to me and asked me to give him all the money in the stand so I just gave it to him right away he said thanks and left," said the barista.

Gaunt was believed to be with 36-year-old Monique Koenig during the robbery. The U.S. Marshals led Western District of Washington Fugitive Task Force and King County Sheriff's detectives arrested her on Tuesday.
She was located at a home near Seward Park in Seattle and booked into the King County jail for investigation of Robbery. "They are going to be putting charges forward today for a bank robbery in Issaquah at the Heritage Bank, a bank robbery that happened in Klahanie at Wells Fargo as well as a Frankie's Pizza in North Bend that was robbed. She's responsible for all three of those," said Sgt. Ryan Abbott.
Deputies say Gaunt was not with her at the time of the arrest. "We're really glad to get her off the street. We're really glad that's she's in jail. We're not going to have anymore of these robberies from her at least and we gotta try to focus on finding her boyfriend now."
