The Wichita Police Department is asking the public’s help in locating the man who robbed a Wichita Bank yesterday afternoon.

At approximately 3:25 p.m. on November 2nd, a man entered the Intrust Bank at 1544 S. Webb Rd., handed a bank employee a blue zippered bank bag and demanded the teller fill it with money. The man then pulled a pistol with his right hand and showed it to the clerk and again asked him to fill the bag with money. After the teller complied, the bandit left the bank and headed north on Webb Rd. No one was hurt in the robbery.

The robber is described as a white male, about 30 years old, approximately six feet tall and weighing about 200 pounds. He was dressed in blue jeans, a white button-up shirt over a white crew neck t-shirt, a brown suit jacket, and was wearing black sunglasses and a fake, stick-on brown beard and mustache. The bandit also was wearing a white metal watch or bracelet on his left arm. A photo of the bandit is attached.

Anyone with any information about this crime or the robber should call 9-1-1, the Wichita Police Department Robbery Section at 268-4177 or submit a tip to the Crime Stoppers website by
