Armed robbery

The security official was not injured as the bullet ended up in the ceiling. "The bank clerk screamed as the robber pointed a firearm at her. Subsequently, a police officer told everybody to take cover. The suspect wore a black hat, something like a dark colored scarf and a black mask," one of the bingo players stated.

Masked robber

A police report shows that the robber was a Latino of about 20 to 25 years old. The masked man weighs approximately 135 pounds, stands about 5 ft 9 – 5 ft 10 and was dressed in all black. It appears that a second man assisted the robber.
