GLENDALE, Ariz. - Glendale Police are looking for a man who they say robbed a bank earlier this month near 55th Avenue and Bell Road.
Officials say the suspect walked into the bank on January 2 and gave the teller a note demanding cash.
"The suspect stated he had a weapon and had a bulge on his left waistband area but did not display a firearm," according to police.
After leaving the bank with an undisclosed amount of cash, he got on a teal and purple beach cruiser-style bicycle with a large rear basket. He rode the bike before getting into a white Toyota Tundra truck that was at a gym near 57th Avenue and Bell Road.
