Fallon police looking for robbery suspect

Police are searching for a male adult who robbed the Fallon branch of U.S.

Bank on Friday afternoon.

According to the Fallon Police Department, the suspect entered the bank and

approached the clerk demanding that she place money in a bag.

The suspect was wearing Wrangler blue jeans and a navy blue-colored hooded

sweatshirt. His face was concealed with a baseball style hat (pulled down)

and a bandanna.

FPD said the suspect exited the bank with an undisclosed amount of cash and

returned to his car that was parked in the northwest section of the Walmart

parking lot. Both the FPD and Churchill County Sheriff's Office have been

combing the area looking for the suspect.

The suspect's vehicle is described as a faded blue Mercury Cougar, believed

to be a mid-1980s model year. As evidenced in a surveillance photo, the

vehicle has the passenger front hubcap but is missing the passenger rear

hubcap.

If individuals can identify the vehicle from the accompanied photograph or

if they noticed this vehicle in the Walmart parking lot between 2:40 p.m.

and 2:50 p.m. and recognize the driver, they are encouraged to call the

Fallon Police Department at 423-2111.
