The West U. Police Department has released descriptions of the suspects who robbed the West U. branch of Compass Bank around 10:30 a.m. Dec. 10.
The suspects are both described as black men dressed for cold weather and wearing layered clothing. The taller man, around 6’ to 6’1” tall, was wearing a dark blue “hoodie” jacket. He was unshaven with dark sunglasses and dark gloves, possibly between 20 and 20-years-old. The short subject was about 5’6” to 5’7” tall in his early twenties and was clean shaven. He wore a dark baseball cap, dark sunglasses, a multi-colored jacket, dark brown gloves and blue jean pants.
No customers were inside the bank when the suspects entered. One of the robbers passed a teller a note demanding money. The note instructed the employee “not to do anything stupid,” and said the men had police scanners.
One of the suspects served as a lookout, while the other approached the teller. The man who passed the note told the teller the lookout was armed, but neither suspect ever produced a weapon.
Once the suspect had the money, the two fled, and no witnesses were able to provide a description of a vehicle. The bank employees called police, but the suspects have not been located. According to West U. police, the bank does not have an armed guard, and at no point was a panic button utilized.
