POLICE SEEK PUBLIC’S ASSISTANCE IN LOCATING ARMED BANK ROBBER

On Friday, January 8, 2010 at approximately 9:22 a.m., a man walked into the Wachovia Bank located in the 2800 block of Shore Drive, Virginia Beach, and approached the teller line while displaying a black framed gun.  He demanded money. The teller complied and handed an undisclosed amount of money to the suspect.  The suspect fled from the business and it is unknown if the suspect got into a vehicle or had a vehicle nearby.

The suspect is described as a white male, 25-30 years old, 5’9” to 5’11” tall, with a medium to stocky build. He was last seen wearing a “Carolina blue” long sleeve collared polo shirt, light colored blue jeans, black ski mask, white gloves, and white sneakers.  He wore a black bag, similar to a computer laptop bag, over his shoulder.

Surveillance photos of the suspect are available.
