RCMP are on the lookout for a man who robbed a West Kelowna bank in a stolen vehicle.
Just before 1 p.m. on Tuesday, the Scotiabank on Dobbin Road was robbed. Police say a man wearing a mask walked in and demanded money from one of the tellers.
No weapon was produced. The man fled in a blue Mazda pick-up truck.
There were no injuries.
Just minutes earlier, RCMP had received a report of a stolen vehicle from a residence on Grouse Road.
Police say the owners’ son took a blue Mazda pick-up without consent.
RCMP say the robbery suspect returned to the residence in the stolen vehicle then fled in a different vehicle.
Both vehicles have since been recovered. Police say the suspect may be heading towards Manitoba.
The suspect is described as Aboriginal, 26 years old, approximately 5’11″ and 175 pounds. He has brown eyes, an orange Mohawk and possibly a goatee.
Police say the suspect is known to them and is known to be violent.
