Cops need your help in fi nding
the bandit who robbed a bank
in Maspeth last week.
Police said the perpetrator walked
into the Valley National Bank at 64-
01 Grand Ave. at 2:35 p.m. on Aug. 17,
approached a teller and handed over
a demand note.
Seconds later, the suspect received
$800 in cash from the employee, then
exited the bank and headed westbound
on Grand Avenue.
Offi cers from the 104th Precinct
responded to the incident; there were
no injuries.
Later on Friday night, police obtained
and released an image of the
crook taken from a security camera inside
the bank. Cops described the suspect
as a white man between 25 and 30
years of age with a thin build, standing
about 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighing
about 180 pounds. He was last observed
wearing a gray baseball cap, sunglasses
and a light-colored polo shirt.
Anyone with information regarding
the suspect’s whereabouts can
call Crime Stoppers at 800-577-TIPS
(for Spanish, dial 888-57-PISTA), visit
the Crime Stoppers website or send a
text message to 274637 (CRIMES), then
