Robber Takes $1,000 From Bank
A bank robber gave a teller a note saying “I’ll kill you,” then fled after taking about $1,000 in cash from a Security Pacific Bank, police said Saturday.
The robbery occurred about 9:10 a.m. at the Security Pacific Bank at 5812 Edinger Ave., said Huntington Beach Police Lt. Jeff Cope. The robber fled after putting the cash into a brown grocery bag.
Cope said the robber, who wore a flannel plaid shirt, handed the teller the note and told the teller to “hurry up” and give him all the money. Witnesses said they saw no weapon, Cope said.
The robber was described as white, about 35 to 40 years old. He was about 5 feet, 8 inches tall and weighed 155 pounds. Witnesses described him as unshaven, with scruffy blond hair, Cope said.
