— The Glasgow Police Department is investigating a possible Thursday morning bank robbery at the South Central Bank branch on Happy Valley Road.
Officers received a call about the theft at 10:06 a.m., according to Capt. Kent Keen, GPD public information officer. No weapons were seen or present and the suspect allegedly demanded money using a note. There was no information on if or how much money may have been taken.
This is the second time in less than two weeks that a robber has struck a South Central Bank branch in Glasgow. On Aug. 26, an individual entered the U.S. 31E location south of Glasgow and also demanded money using a note.
Keen said the description they have on the suspect in Thursday’s theft was similar to last week’s. He said the person was wearing a yellow, long-sleeved shirt, khaki pants and sunglasses.
There is no evidence right now that the suspect has any ties to South Central Bank, according to Keen, but all possibilities are being pursued.
No other information was available at this time.
Anyone with information regarding either robbery should contact the GPD at (270) 651-5151.
