MANAHAWKIN – Police are investigating a bank robbery that occurred at the CHASE Bank on Martin Truex Jr. Blvd on the afternoon of Jan. 18.

The bank was reportedly robbed by an unidentified male, who was described as, “a white male, approximately 6’0 tall, weighing approximately 225 pounds,” according to the Stafford Township Police Department. “He was wearing a grey, hoodie sweatshirt with dark zipper, dark sunglasses, light colored jeans and dark shoes.”

The subject also had a lollipop in his mouth at the time of the robbery. Police reported that he did not display a weapon but handed the bank teller a note and she gave him an unknown amount of money.

Fleeing the bank of foot, the man headed towards the Aldi Food Store and the BJ’s just south of the bank.
