Surrey RCMP seek help to identify alleged bank robber

Surrey RCMP have released surveillance photos of a suspect who allegedly robbed a bank earlier this month.

Mounties said they were called to a bank in City Centre in the 10100-block of King George Blvd on May 1 at around 10:30 a.m.

When they arrived, bank staff told officers a man had stolen an undisclosed amount of cash by threatening violence. No weapon was used during the alleged robbery, Mounties said.

Police believe the suspect is a male in his 20s with a dark complexion and medium build. He was wearing a grey/blue baseball cap with white straps and grey pants with red stripes on the sides.

The man fled the area on foot and officers could not locate him despite extensive searches.

Surrey RCMP are hoping the public can help identify the man in the surveillance photos.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Surrey RCMP’s Robbery Unit at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
