Police Looking for Suspect in Lincoln Township Bank Robbery

By Beth Boehne

(SBT24/7News) Police were looking Friday for a man who robbed the 1st Source Bank at 4009 Red Arrow Highway in Lincoln Township.

A teller at the bank told Lincoln Charter Township Police that a man walked into the bank about 12:06 p.m., gave her a note, said he had a gun and demanded money.

The teller told police the man made gestures indicating he had a weapon but none was visible.

The man was described as being black, in his early 20s, about 6 feet tall with short-cropped black hair, thin build, wearing a bright white T-shirt or jersey without lettering or markings, and blue jeans or possibly ¾-length blue jean shorts, and white shoes.

The suspect was last seen running south from the bank in the direction of Glenlord Road near Red Arrow Highway.

There were several bank employees inside at the time of the hold-up, but no customers were inside.

A Michigan State Police tracking dog searched the area, but the man has not been found.

The investigation continues and anyone with information is requested to contact the Lincoln Charter Township Police Department at (269) 429-2444 or Crime Stoppers at (800) 342-STOP.
