NEWS MEDIA PRESS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE DISSEMINATION
DATE: January 7, 2016
CASE #: 2016-00296
MEDIA CONTACT: Detective Sergeant Jensen
PHONE: (510)741-2077
SUBJECT: Chase Bank, Pinole Robbery
On January 6, 2015 at approximately 5:53 PM, Pinole Police officers responded to the Chase Bank located at 1541 Fitzgerald Drive regarding a bank robbery. When the officers arrived, they determined the suspect fled the location prior to their arrival.
Investigation revealed that the female, who appeared to be acting alone, presented a demand note to one of the bank tellers. The demand note indicated that if the teller did not give the suspect any money, someone in the bank would be harmed. The teller complied and gave the suspect an undisclosed amount of cash and then the suspect fled in an unknown direction. No weapon was observed and no one was injured during this incident.
The suspect has been described as a white female in her late twenties to early thirties, approximately five foot six inches tall and weighing approximately one hundred eighty pounds. See the attached photo for the suspect’s clothing description.
The Pinole Police Department is investigating this robbery in conjunction with FBI. Anyone with information regarding this crime is encouraged to call the Pinole Police Department at (510) 724-8950.
