Search is on for 'Armed & Dangerous' Suspect

Easttown police and several K-9 units from the Chester County Sheriff's office are searching for a gunman who robbed the Citizen's Bank branch on Lancaster Ave at Waterloo Ave. in Devon just before 3 p.m. Tuesday.

Easttown Police Chief David Obzud says the suspect is a 6'4" tall black man who was wearing goggles and a hoodie. "He was covered from head to toe," Obzud tells Patch, meaning it was hard for witnesses inside the bank to get a more detailed description.

No injuried were reported and no shots were fired.

The man fled with cash that was loaded with a dye pack that Obzud confrims exploded, covering the cash, and most likely the suspect, with ink.

Police arrived within minutes of the alarm and were able to stop and search the first Septa train at the station closest to the time of the robbery. Obzud says the suspect was not on the train.

Police from Willistown, Tredyffrin, and Chester County were on the scene.

If you see anyone matching the description of the suspect or have any information, call Easttown Police at 610-341-9780.
