Share

Ventura County sheriff’s detectives are looking for a man who robbed a bank on North Moorpark Road in Thousand Oaks Friday morning and fled with about $2,700 in cash, authorities said.

The robber did not display or pretend to have a weapon when he handed a note demanding money to a teller at the First State Bank of the Oaks about 10:50 a.m., police said.

The teller handed him the cash and the man fled on foot, police said. A search by deputies in numerous patrol cars and surveillance by a sheriff’s helicopter did not locate him.
