MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Maplewood police are asking for the public's help after a man wearing a highly-visible traffic vest robbed a bank last week.
According to police, on Aug. 15 at around 2:30 p.m., a TCF Bank branch located within a CUB Foods grocery store – located at 2390 White Bear Avenue – was robbed.
