Police are asking for the public’s help as they try to track down a woman who robbed a bank in Lincoln Park on Monday afternoon.
The woman walked into PNC Bank at 2600 North Halsted at 12:26 p.m. and handed a note to a teller, according to the FBI. No weapon was seen. After getting about $500, the woman fled in an unknown direction.
An FBI bulletin released Tuesday morning said the woman is black, 5’4” to 5’6” tall, 120 pounds, and in her mid-20’s.
Federal authorities are offering a reward of up to $1,000 for information that leads directly to the woman’s arrest. Anyone with information about the suspect can contact the FBI’s Chicago field office at 312-421-6700.
CWBChicago was created in 2013 by five residents of Wrigleyville and Boystown who had grown disheartened with inaccurate information that was being provided at local Community Policing (CAPS) meetings.
Our coverage area has expanded since then to cover Lincoln Park, River North, The Loop, Uptown, and other North Side Areas. But our mission remains unchanged: To provide original public safety reporting with better context and greater detail than mainstream media outlets.
