Police seek South San Francisco bank robber

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.

The suspect, who may have been in disguise, entered the bank in the 300 block of Grand Avenue around 11:30 a.m. and gave a teller a note saying he was armed and that he wanted money from the teller drawers, police said.

The teller gave the suspect an undisclosed amount of money, and the suspect then fled from the bank on foot. He was last seen running eastbound from the bank.

No customers or employees were injured during the robbery.
