After taking the cash, the suspect fled the bank and was last seen headed south on Glen Oaks Boulevard on foot, Valento said.
The suspect is described as a male Latino between 20 and 30 years old, about 5 feet, 8 inches tall and of average build, Valento said. He was wearing a black hat and a dark brown coat, he said.
