10 TV: Police said that they were searching for a man who robbed a northeast side bank on Friday morning. The robbery took place at about 10:24 a.m. at Union Savings Bank, located at 1330 Morse Rd.
According to the FBI, a man who entered the bank was seen writing on a deposit slip at the check-writing counter in the lobby. He then approached a bank teller and handed her a note that said he was robbing the bank. He leaned in and told the teller that he had a gun and wanted the money fast, police said.
The teller complied and gave the robber a small amount of cash before he ran out of the bank, investigators said. Witnesses saw the man run westbound along a fence line near a McDonald's and possibly enter a small, dark-colored vehicle, taking off quickly out of the area.
The robber is described as being in his 30s, 5 feet 11 inches tall, with a medium build, and was wearing a light-colored camouflage baseball cap, blue long-sleeve denim shirt, blue jeans and dirty tennis shoes. Anyone with information about the robbery is asked to contact the Columbus police Robbery Squad at 614-645-4665 or the FBI at 614-744-2168.
