South St. Paul Bank Robbery

On Wednesday, September 30, 2009, at approximately 3:00 p.m., the Central Bank (formerly Mainstreet Bank) located at 835 Southview Boulevard, South St. Paul, Minnesota, was robbed by a lone individual. After running into the bank, the robber brandished, as a weapon, a covered object in his left hand, and yelled to the victim teller, “Give me the money! Give me the 100’s!” When the teller handed over an undisclosed amount of money, the robber grabbed the cash and sprinted from the bank. He was last seen running down an alley across the street from the bank in an easterly direction.

The robber is described as a white male in his late 30’s, with a medium height and medium build. He was wearing a dark hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans, a tan baseball cap, dark sunglasses with silver frames placed on top of the hat, and a red bandana covering his face. This robber also matches the description of the individual responsible for the robbery of the MidCountry Bank located at 6506 Cahill Avenue, Inver Grove Heights on Friday, September 25, 2009.

Ralph S. Boelter, Special Agent in Charge of the Minneapolis Office of the FBI, requests that anyone with information regarding this bank robbery contact the Minneapolis FBI at 612-376-3200, the South St. Paul Police Department at 651-554-3300, or Crime Stoppers.
