Two men have pleaded guilty to an armored vehicle robbery that netted them more than $1.2 million.

The robbery happened outside of the Bank of America in Washington last June.

Charles Moore, Jr. and Lenard Smith, both of Timerlake, admitted to the Hobbs Act robbery, and for using a firearm in a crime of violence.

A third person, Emmanuel Wallace III pleaded guilty in April.

Moore and Smith are scheduled for sentencing in September. They face up to life in prison and a $500,000 fine.

As part of the plea, the two have agree to assist in the recovery of the cash, or any property that was purchased with it.
