San Diego
Police are looking for a robber who took $2,300 from a Bank of America branch in Ocean Beach Friday.
The man entered the bank in the 4900 block of Newport Avenue on Friday and handed the teller a note, said Bill Robinson, a San Diego police spokesman.
The note said he had a gun and that the teller should turn over the money, Robinson said.
The man was last seen running through an alley near the bank.
Robinson said the suspect’s description matches that of a man who robbed a Peninsula Bank in the 4800 block of Newport Avenue on Monday.
The 6-foot-tall robber was wearing a red-and-blue baseball cap, dark sun glasses and a red sweat shirt that zips up the front, and he was carrying a light blue flight bag.
