Another Bank Inside of a Camden County, NJ, Supermarket Robbed
For the second time this week, cops in Camden County say a man robbed a bank that is located inside of a supermarket.
This latest robbery occurred at the PNC Bank branch inside ShopRite on Berlin-Cross Keys Road in Winslow Township at around 7:00 Friday night.
Acting Camden County Prosecutor Jill Mayer and Winslow Township Police Chief George Smith say a man, "...placed some items into a shopping basket and then approached a teller at the PNC Bank... The male then passed a note to the teller demanding money in specific denominations. In the note, the male threatened to shoot the teller, if he did not comply."
The suspect is described a white male with a thin build, bald, with a beard. He was wearing a blue t-shirt and jeans.
The man left with an undisclosed amount of cash and got into a dark-colored Hyundai SUV.
This past Tuesday, a Citizens Bank branch inside Acme in Runnemede was robbed. In that case, like this one, a note was passed to a teller that demanded money in specific denominations and also threatened the worker.
While authorities have not specifically said that the two robberies are related, similarities in the suspect(s) can be noted. The suspect wanted for the robbery in Runnemede is shown here:
That suspect is described as a white male, approximately 6 feet tall, with a slim build, a shaved head, a blonde beard, and he was wearing dark glasses and blue jeans.
Anyone with information about either robbery or the identity or whereabouts of this/either suspect is asked to contact the Camden County Prosecutor's Office's Major Crimes Unit at (856) 856-676-8175.
