Gunman Sought In Vacaville Bank Robbery

VACAVILLE (CBS SF) - Police were asking the public to help them identify a man who robbed a Chase Bank in Vacaville on Tuesday afternoon.

 

An armed man entered the bank at 3005 Alamo Drive around 3:45 p.m., brandished a handgun and demanded money from tellers, Sgt. Todd Dye said.

 

The suspect is described as a black man, 30 to 40 years old, 5 feet 7 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall with a slim build, Dye said. He was wearing a white shirt and jeans.
