According to police, the man entered the bank, located at 7301 Wyoming, around 2:30 p.m. Oct. 25 and demanded money from a teller. Witnesses say he left with no money in hand after becoming impatient when he did not receive the money quickly.

The man was last seen leaving the bank northbound on Wyoming on foot.
