Fitness model pleads guilty to series of robberies
David Byers
David Byers  who has appeared on the covers of romance novels   also agreed to make restitution of nearly $15 000 in wake of the five robberies that took place over a seven-day span earlier this year.
Prosecutors say  Byers  took $300 from a gas station in Nesconset  Long Island  on April 19  and then grabbed $2 107 from a Chase Bank in Stony Brook the following day.  He  would later hit a gas station in Greenwich and strike twice at a Chase Bank in the same city  taking more than $12 000.  He  approached the same teller on both days  telling  him  during the second robbery  "you know why Iâm here."
During at least one of the robberies   he  wore a bandana over  his  face  according to the plea agreement.
After the series of robberies  the 35-year-old Byers somehow made it all the way home to California despite nearly getting captured several times. Officers tried to arrest  him  Greenwich  but  he  was able to elude them after driving away in a "reckless matter " according to authorities.  He  later abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot.
 He  stayed a step ahead of authorities in New York state by pretending to be a valet and stealing a Range Rover.
Later  Arizona state police officers attempted to stop  him  while  he  was driving a truck stolen from Pennsylvania  with a license plate stolen from Maryland. Following a high-speed chase   Byers  abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot.
