Kansas Bank Robbed In Middle of the Afternoon; Police Searching For Suspect

(AP) – Riley County police are looking for a man who robbed a bank in downtown Manhattan, just blocks from a similar holdup last month.

A branch of Kansas State Bank was robbed shortly before 3 p.m. Thursday by a white male wearing a dark coat, black beanie, sunglasses and jeans. Bank officials say the man gave a teller a note demanding and was last seen leaving the area on foot. No weapon was displayed.

On Oct. 4, Community First National Bank near downtown Manhattan was robbed by a white man wearing a heavy coat, sunglasses and a winter hat. That man also presented a note demanding money. The teller said she could see a gun in his waistband.

No arrest has been made in that holdup.
