CHICAGO — In an unusual bank robbery, a pair of people robbed a Fifth-Third Bank branch in McKinley Park Wednesday, officials said.
"This was somewhat unusual, since non-takeover robberies are usually committed by people operating alone," said Special Agent Joan Hyde, FBI spokeswoman.
The man and woman robbed the bank at 1950 W. 33rd St. about 4:20 p.m. and made off with an uknown amount of money, according to the FBI.
The two implied they had a weapon, but did not show one, Hyde said. Police said the man displayed a black handgun.
The man is described as Hispanic, thin, between 25 and 35 years old and standing between 5-foot-4 and 5-foot-6. He was wearing a black hat, black sunglasses and a black shirt, the FBI said.
The woman is described as white, between 20 and 30 and standing about 5-foot-7. She was wearing a striped shirt, jeans and sunglasses, according to the FBI.
Police said the man fled in a red Dodge vehicle.
Anyone with information is asked to call 312-421-6700. A reward is offered for information leading to the capture of the alleged robbers.
