The Fairfax County Police Department released a new surveillance photo of a wanted bank robber as they attempt to track down the man who targeted Wells Fargo in Burke on Wednesday morning.

Police say that shortly after 9 a.m. on Feb. 28, a masked man wearing all black marched into the branch in the 8900 block of Burke Lake Road, approached a teller and demanded cash, though no weapon was displayed or implied during the threat.

No injuries were reported.

The suspect was described as being a Black man who is between 5-foot-9 and 6-foot-2 with a thin build, wearing a black North Face hooded sweatshirt, black pants, and a black backpack.

It remains under investigation.
