No weapon was shown, a law enforcement source said.

Bergen County Sheriff Leo McGuire said detectives from his Crime Scene Unit were at the scene yesterday “assisting Garfield PD in this investigation.”

Authorities have not said whether they have identified any suspects. The only description of the robber so far is that he was wearing a blue cap and a light blue shirt.

The Lanza Avenue branch, part of Clifton Bank Corp., opened in 1977.
