Delaware State Police looking for bank robbery suspects

Delaware State Police say they are seeking the public’s help as they search for a suspect linked to eight bank robberies in two states, including two at the same bank since 2009.

Police said in a statement that a stocky man in a fake beard and moustache on Thursday burst into a PNC Bank branch in Greenville that was held up in June 2009. Sgt. Paul Shavack says the suspect ordered employees and customers to the floor, took an undisclosed amount of cash and ran.

Shavack says the suspect is also wanted in two Pennsylvania holdups.
