Then, police said, the man gave a teller a note saying he had a gun and demanding cash. The teller did not see a gun, but the man kept his hand in his pocket, police said.

Once the teller handed over the cash, the robber fled on foot. He has not been found.

Police described the robber as a man between 30 and 50 years old with a receding hairline and possibly a goatee.

Anyone with information is asked to call Broward Crime Stoppers at 954-493-TIPS (8477).
