Hamilton police are investigating an armed robbery at a bank in the Waterdown area last week.
In a release on Tuesday, police say officers were called to an RBC bank at around 6 p.m. on May 22.
They say a single suspect walked into the bank and told staff to turn over cash.
“The suspect carried a handgun during the robbery and fled prior to police arrival,” police said in the release.
Police did not say if anything was stolen.
They describe the suspect as a man, wearing a black face covering, grey Puma hoodie, black pants, and black Adidas shoes with white soles at the time of the attempted robbery.
He was driving a grey Mazda compact SUV, police say.
Anyone with information is asked to call Hamilton police or contact Crime Stoppers anonymously.
