A man who said he was carrying a bomb robbed a Suntrust bank at Dupont Circle during the busy lunch hour today, officials said.
The robber was described as tall, slim and grey-haired. He arrived at the branch, in the 1300 block of Connecticut Avenue NW, about 1 p.m. and told a teller that the bag he was carrying had a bomb in it, said Debbie Weierman, an FBI spokeswoman.
The teller gave him some cash and he fled on foot, injuring no one. Officials are unsure what he was actually carrying, Weierman said. He remained at large late today.
