The FBI and Albuquerque police are investigating a robbery that occurred this afternoon at BBVA Compass bank, 3500 Candelaria Road NE, near Carlisle Boulevard NE.
Witnesses say a man with a dark or medium complexion walked into the bank at about 2:05 p.m. and gave the teller a note that demanded money.
The man put his hand in his pocket and touched something that made a metallic, clicking noise when the teller hesitated to hand over the money.
The suspect, who walked with a limp, left the bank with an undisclosed amount of money. He got into a white four-door sedan driven by a woman.
The vehicle was seen heading east on Candelaria.
The suspect is described as in his mid- to late 30s, about 6' to 6'2 tall, with a heavy build. He had black hair, dark sunspots on his left cheek, and a large white bandage or piece of tape covering his chin.
The man wore sunglasses, a brown straw gardener-style hat with a wide brim, a dark T-shirt with long sleeves, and dark blue jeans.
A reward of up to $1,000 may be available for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the subject.
