dept.-of-justiceOMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A suburban Omaha woman has been given 18 months in prison for embezzling from a bank branch.

Federal prosecutors say 43-year-old Amy Fisher, of Papillion (puh-PIHL’-yuhn), must serve three years of supervised release after she leaves prison. She also was ordered to pay restitution of nearly $159,000. Fisher pleaded guilty in June.

Fisher was convicted of thefts that occurred from September 2012 through March 2014 while working at a Bank of the West branch. Prosecutors say Fisher took the money from 17 customers’ accounts.
