Knoxville, TN - The FBI says an East Tennessee woman has been arrested on charges of being an accessory in the case of a man suspected of robbing 14 banks in six states.

Agents said in a news release Thursday that Linda Christina Davis Goin of Morristown was arrested earlier Thursday without incident in Morristown. She is charged with making false statements and being an accessory in the bank robbery case involving Chad E. Schaffner, 37, of Indianapolis.

He was arrested Sept. 12 in Kingdom City, Mo., and is suspected of robbing banks in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, North and South Carolina and Tennessee.

Schaffner's picture was posted on electronic billboards across the South before his arrest.
