$25,000 reward being offered for suspects in Bank of America heist

The FBI and the Norristown Police Department are still asking for the public's assistance in identifying or locating the subjects responsible for the armed robbery of the Brink's armored truck Wednesday, Feb. 2, at the branch in Norristown.

The three unidentified suspects approached the Brink's truck in a Chrysler Town and Country minivan as the driver was making a delivery to the bank. The minivan had been stolen earlier that day from the parking lot of a convenience store on Cottman Avenue in Northeast Philadelphia.

The three males were described as either black or Hispanic and were wearing masks, dark jackets, jeans and gloves. The men were reportedly armed with handguns and an assault rifle.

After striking the armored car driver in the head with the butt of an assault rifle and knocking him to the ground, the suspects stole the cash the employee was delivering to the bank. The suspects then fled in the stolen minivan through the Regatta Apartment complex behind the bank branch, crashed through a chain barricade and abandoned the stolen minivan in the 900 block of Main Street.

The suspects reportedly switched to an early-2000s model year Nissan Pathfinder, black or dark blue in color, and fled the area toward Bridgeport.

Brink's has offered a $25,000 reward to assist in the investigation for the arrest and conviction of the subjects responsible for the robbery and the recovery of the stolen money.

The suspects are considered armed and dangerous. Anyone with information is urged to call the FBI at 215-418-4000 or the Norristown Police Department at 610-270-0977. Callers can remain anonymous.
