Little Rock police are investigating a bank robbery Thursday morning, the first one reported in the city this year, authorities said at the scene.
Police said a Hispanic or biracial male with a neatly cut beard and a teardrop tattoo under his eye passed a note at the Centennial Bank branch at 2922 S. University Ave. around 11:20 a.m. and walked off after getting an undisclosed amount of cash.
The teller never saw a weapon, though the note indicated the man was armed with a gun and he kept one hand in his pocket, police said.
The robber stood about 5 foot 6 and was wearing gray sweatpants and a dark blue Kansas City Royals shirt.
Police were searching the surrounding area.
