Police Searching for Suspect in Carlsbad Bank Robbery

Carlsbad police and the FBI are investigating a Friday-evening bank robbery in Carlsbad by a suspect that implied he had a weapon, according to authorities.

The Comerica Bank at 2626 El Camino Real was robbed around 6:40 p.m. by a Caucasian or Hispanic male that implied to a bank clerk that he was armed, but did not display a weapon, according to Carlsbad police.

The suspect was about 5 feet 5 inches tall, weighed about 150 pounds and had a moustache and tattoos on his neck and hands. He wore a black, hooded sweatshirt, brown pants and a black baseball cap and drove away on northbound El Camino Real in a white 1990s-model Toyota extended-cab pickup truck.

The suspect left with an undisclosed amount of money, and no injuries were reported during the robbery.
