A former armed transport guard will be sentenced in August after he admitted in federal court that he stole nearly $580,000 from credit union and bank ATMs over a period of more than two years, the U.S. Attorney’s Officer in Juneau, Alaska said last week.

Austin Nolan Dwight Rutherford, 29, of Juneau, pleaded guilty to two felony counts of theft, embezzlement and misapplication of funds, according to a plea deal filed in U.S. District Court in Juneau.
