Baltimore County Police need the public’s help identifying a man responsible for robbing the M&T Bank in the 200-block of Mt. Carmel Road on September 17 at approximately 9:50 a.m.

The suspect is described as a black male, 20-29 years old, 5′- 5’4″ tall, with a small build, bushy hair with a ponytail and a mustache. He was last seen wearing a black and red Cincinnati Reds baseball cap, black zip-up jacket, mirrored sunglasses, white gloves, and jeans. The suspect may walk with a limp or have a deformity of the leg.

Detectives say that the suspect entered the bank, pointed a black automatic handgun at the teller and placed a note on the counter. The note was a “Hold-up” note that demanded money from the teller.

The teller gave the suspect an undisclosed amount of cash, and the robber ran out of the bank. The suspect was last seen running west toward I-83.

Anyone with information about the identity or whereabouts of the suspect is asked to call Baltimore County Police at 410-307-2020 or Metro Crime Stoppers at 1-866-7-LOCKUP (1-866-756-2587).
