The Philadelphia Police Department and the FBI are seeking the public’s assistance to identify and locate the subject responsible for last night’s robbery of the TruMark Financial Credit Union branch located at 7306 Castor Avenue in the Rhawnhurst section of the city.

At approximately 7:06 p.m., the subject entered the bank and handed a teller a demand note. After obtaining an undisclosed amount of cash, the subject fled the area of the bank on foot and was last seen heading north on Castor Avenue toward Rhawn Street.
