3 Armed, Masked Men Rob Bank In Antioch, Flee In Stolen SUV

ANTIOCH (CBS SF) -- Police were looking for three men who came into a bank Tuesday afternoon in Antioch and stole money from it and a customer at gunpoint, police said.

Antioch police responded at 1:16 p.m. to Chase Bank at 3457 Deer Valley Road based on calls about an armed takeover robbery.

Police determined that the suspects, who were all apparently masked, ordered everyone in the bank to get on the ground. Police said at least one of the suspects allegedly brandished a firearm.

The suspects stole money from the bank and also took a customer's wallet, police said. No one was reported injured in the robbery.

The suspects then fled in a vehicle at a high rate of speed, police said.

Another caller later reported that three men had abandoned a silver SUV and got into a waiting white SUV.

Police determined that the abandoned vehicle was reported stolen out of San Pablo.

Antioch police are still investigating the robbery. No further details were immediately available.
