Man, Woman Sought In SF Marina District Bank Robbery

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) -- Police were seeking a man and woman who robbed a bank in San Francisco's Marina District on Thursday afternoon.

The robbery was reported about 2 p.m. in the 2100 block of Chestnut Street.

One of the suspects entered the bank and asked a female teller for a roll of quarters, but when the teller opened the drawer, the suspect pointed a black handgun at her and ordered her to hand over all of the $100 bills inside, police said.

The teller complied and handed over the cash to the suspect, who fled with a second suspect who was standing at the bank entrance as a lookout, according to police.

The pair, described as a man and woman between 25 and 35 years old, fled east on Chestnut Street in a white, four-door sedan and had not been found as of this morning, police said.

No one was injured in the robbery.

Anyone with information about the case is asked to call the Police Department's anonymous tip line at (415) 575-4444 or to send a tip by text message to TIP411 with "SFPD" in the message.
