PALMDALE : Man Robs S&L;, Flees on Foot
A Palmdale branch of Valley Federal Savings and Loan was robbed Monday morning, Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies reported.

Antonio Madrid said. “He then simulated a handgun and demanded money from the teller,” Madrid said. When the teller complied, the man demanded more money from another teller, then fled on foot, Madrid said. He did not reveal how much the robber took.
The robbery was being investigated by the Sheriff’s Department and the FBI.
