On Tuesday, December 8, 2009, at approximately 2:30 p.m., the TCF Bank located in Cub Foods located at 8423 Lyndale Avenue South, Bloomington, Minnesota, was robbed by a lone male. The robber entered the bank, approached the victim teller, threw a white bag on the counter, and made a verbal demand for cash.
