NLR police investigate armed bank robbery

North Little Rock police are investigating an armed bank robbery that occurred Wednesday morning on Camp Robinson Road.

Police spokesman Sgt. Brian Dedrick said the robber arrived at the Metropolitan National Bank, 3901 Camp Robinson Road, at 9:10 a.m. on a bicycle, which he parked next to the bank at Grace Church of the Nazarene.

The robber entered the bank and displayed a handgun, Dedrick said. No injuries were reported, and no customers were in the bank at the time, he said.

The robber fled north from the bank on foot with an undisclosed amount of cash, leaving the bike behind, according to Dedrick.

The robber is described as a tall, slender black male with dreadlocks, which Dedrick said are likely fake. He wore a red cap, white shirt, black pants and black shoes with red laces during the robbery.
