Rising Sun Bank Robber Still At Large

A man who robbed a bank near Rising Sun at gunpoint late last week remained on the loose Monday night, despite an intense manhunt immediately after the crime, police said.


Dressed in military-style camouflage pants and shirt, the suspect brandished a handgun and demanded money about 11 a.m. on Friday after reaching the teller counter in the M&T Bank at 2841 Jacob Tome Highway, police said.

The armed bandit ran out the bank after the employee handed him cash and he was last seen heading toward Nesbitt and Harrisville Roads, police added.

"We don't know if he stayed on foot or if he had a getaway car waiting for him somewhere in that area. We also don't know if he had an accomplice," said Lt. Michael Holmes, a spokesman for the Cecil County Sheriff's Office. "We're asking anyone who saw anything suspicious in that area (about 11 a.m. on Friday) to call us."

Maybe he watched that tv show and rode a dirt bike to couple miles away and jogged the rest of way to bank.

Maybe it's the same person that has robbed the store down the street 3 times in a row and still has yet to be caught!!
