Police Seek Public's Help In Search For Man Who Robbed Frankford Bank

PHILADELPHIA (CBS)-- Philadelphia Police and the FBI are asking the public for help identifying and locating man who robbed a bank in the Frankford section of the city on Monday afternoon.

The man entered the Wells Fargo Bank branch at 5119 Frankford Avenue just before 5 p.m. and handed the teller a note demanding money. The teller gave the man an undisclosed amount of cash and the suspect left.

The suspect is described as a white male in his early 30s, about 5'6" tall with a long face and short beard. He was wearing a green coat with furry lining around the hood, a dark-colored Phillies hat and jeans at the time of the robbery, and is considered armed and dangerous.

Anyone with information about the robbery or suspect is urged to call the FBI at 215-418-4000 or the Philadelphia Police Department. There may be a reward for information leading to this subject's capture.

A photo of the suspect (seen above) was caught by a surveillance camera at the bank.
