MONTANA AVE. — An elderly man robbed Citibank on Thursday and escaped with an unknown amount of money, authorities said.

At about 1:45 p.m., the suspect, described by witnesses as between 70 and 80 years old, entered the bank, located at 1505 Montana Ave., walked up to a teller and verbally demanded money. No weapon was seen by witnesses, said FBI spokeswoman Cathy Viray.

He was seen running from the bank by a valet working across the street. The suspect wasn’t found by police.

The suspect is described as a white male, between 5 feet, 10 inches and 6 feet tall, with a thin build and a slight tan. He was wearing gold-framed, tinted glasses, a denim jacket and tan pants.
