Greenwood Bank of America robbed

June 29th, 2009 · 8 Comments

A man robbed the Bank of America on 85th St. at 1 p.m. this afternoon, Seattle Police say.  They’re  looking for the suspect, who’s described as a man in his 20s wearing jeans and a green-checkered dress shirt, with brown hair gelled and combed back. PhinneyWood reader Rebecca said her boyfriend was asked by police if he had seen the suspect.  “They asked him if he had seen a red van (Ford Econoline) and showed him a security photo of a man with short, dark hair and glasses,” she said.  “They thought maybe the van had come through the gravel parking lot of the Greenwood Medical Center.”

If you saw anything, you’re asked to call 911.

    Was it the same suspect from last week’s robbery?

    Holy crow, seriously? Wasn’t this bank robbed last week?

    I noticed that they had added a guard standing outside after last week’s robbery, and thought that would make a difference. I guess I was wrong!

    @1: No, if I remember correctly, the subject in that robbery was supposedly an older white gentleman with gray hair.

    Actually, I made up the part about gray hair … “white guy in his 50s” is all the police said about the BofA robbery last week.

    ‘white guy in his mid 50s’?

    Must be management.
