FRESNO, CA (KMJ) – A man who police say robbed a North Fresno bank will be literally red-handed, and is on the run in Fresno.
Fresno Police Captain Burke Farrah told KMJ that the suspect robbed the Compass Bank at Palm and Shaw around 10:30am, Friday morning.
“He went in to the bank and demanded money, told the bank teller they [sic] were armed, bank provided some cash but in the middle of that was a bank dye pack, said Captain Farrah.
Captain Farrah adds that the red dye pack exploded in the vehicle — covering the suspect.
The suspect vehicle is described by Captain Farrah as a silver Chrysler 200, driven by a Hispanic man covered in red dye.
The vehicle was last seen traveling Southbound on Palm Avenue.
Anyone who sees them is asked to call 9-1-1.
