No surveillance photos of the robber? Average height middle-aged white male is kind a thin description to go on.

the robber will get eventually get caught. like lay's potato chips, no one can stop with just one. a false sense of confidence and the need for more money later down the road will trigger another attempt. it is a numbers game.

Another crime report. But crime is not a priority!

Eventually between surveillance video quality and DNA, there will be no way to get away with this kind of crime.

You'd think banks' insurers would require better cameras. You could get cleaner video out of a $19 back up camera from Frys

Wells Fargo has been robbing its customers for years. Millions of dollars creating unneeded accounts and recently, publicity about their overcharging on student loans. Millions of dollars.
The bank's corruption runs deep.

The bank robber if caught, will get 15-20 years.
The CEO of Wells Fargo & his stooges will get bonuses. Go figure.
As long as no one was hurt in the robbery, it's only money.

That was my branch, my money.
Certainly disqualifies me from being on the jury.

don't they put those exploding indelible ink bags in with the cash? that way the robber looks like he just robbed a bank.
