Happened about 9:30 today at the Platte Valley Bank at 6324 N.W. Barry Road. Police are looking for a black male, about 6 feet tall, 170 to 180 pounds, medium build. He wore a green hardhat, tan coveralls and safety goggles/glasses. From the FBI:
Suspect walked into the bank and engaged a teller in conversation regarding opening a bank account. He produced a grocery style bag and told her to fill it. A second teller approached and he handed her a bag and told her to fill it as well. Suspect departed with an undisclosed amount of money and was seen walking NW through the parking lot.
oh more minority crime...

Is it still a robbery if someone asks for the money but doesn't show a weapon or make a threat?
