Seeking Information on Armed Bank Robbery in Plymouth

$25,000 Reward Offered

On September 13, 2010 at approximately 6:45 a.m., the US Bank located at
4105 Lancaster Lane North, Plymouth, Minnesota
was robbed by two masked men. The robbery occurred as bank employees were opening the bank for business. The two robbers, one armed with a semi automatic handgun and the other a knife, forced bank employees to the vault, where they held a handgun to a bank employee’s head and demanded money. After receiving an undisclosed amount of cash, the robbers bound and blindfolded the bank employees in the vault, then fled the bank.

One robber is described as a black male, approximately 5’8” - 6’ tall with a heavy build, wearing dark clothing and a black ski mask. The other robber is described as a black male, approximately 5’8” - 5’10” tall with a slim build, wearing dark clothing and a dark mask. These bank robbers are believed to be responsible for the August 4, 2010 robbery of the Wells Fargo Bank in Champlin, Minnesota and the attempted robbery of the TCF Bank in Chanhassen, Minnesota on August 30, 2010.

Ralph S. Boelter, Special Agent in Charge of the Minneapolis office of the FBI, requests that anyone with information regarding this bank robbery contact the Minneapolis FBI at 612-376-3200, the Plymouth Police Department, or Crime Stoppers. US Bank is offering up to $25,000 for the arrest and conviction of these bank robbers.
