The robbery took place around 10 a.m., Tuesday, May 4, at the Stop & Shop in Shelton, at 898 Bridgeport Ave.
The man walked into the Peoples Bank and handed a teller a note demanding cash while implying he had a gun, said Shelton PD Detective Christopher Nugent.
After receiving the cash, the man immediately ran from the store and into the parking lot where he entered a newer model orange Hyundai Tucson, he added.
The man is described as a white thin male, approximately 6’4 tall in his late mid 30’s, wearing a blue sweatshirt, blue cargo pants, work boots, and a fitted baseball hat with a “T” Logo.
Anyone who recognizes the man or has any information regarding the robbery is urged to contact the Shelton Police Department at 203-924-1544.
All calls will be kept confidential.
The Connecticut Bankers Reward Association is offering a $500 reward for information that leads to the arrest of the individual responsible for the bank robbery.
