FBI: 2 Suspects In Ross Twp. Bank Robbery Should Be Considered Armed, Dangerous

ROSS TOWNSHIP (KDKA) -- The FBI and Ross Township Police are looking for two suspects following a bank robbery Friday morning.

Authorities say the two men should be considered armed and dangerous.

According to the FBI, the robbery happened around 9:15 a.m. at the First Niagara Bank on Babcock Boulevard.

There were no customers inside when the suspects entered, just employees, about half a dozen of them.

Ross Township Police Detective Brian Kohlhepp says the two men walked inside the bank armed and ready.

"Both males were armed with handguns and they fled in a newer-model, four-door gray Toyota Corolla," said Det. Kohlhepp. "The males are described as white males, both about five-eight to five-nine."

No one was hurt, but one of the robbers did leap over the counter.

"They communicated verbally only and stated this was a robbery," Det. Kohlhepp said.

The second suspect had a larger build. He was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, black ski mask and a hat.
