At approximately 9:09 am Wednesday October 21, 2009 a black male wearing all black entered the Charter Bank on Carriage Oaks Drive brandishing a handgun. He forced the employees into the vault after having the teller empty her drawer into a garbage bag.
The suspect is described as a black male 5'11" to 6' tall, approximately 200 lbs. He was possibly driving or riding in an older model gray Jeep Cherokee.
A still shot from the bank's security camera is attached, depicting the suspect's face. We are attempting to obtain a clearer image and will update this post if any become available.
No shots were fired during this incident and no injuries are reported.
