An armed robber waited patiently until his number was called before threatening an employee at the ANZ bank on The Boulevard in Floreat, and demanding cash.
Around 1.34pm on Friday the 11th of May 2012, the casually dressed male, wearing thongs and a hoodie, entered the bank and collected a ticket from the ticket machine before calmly taking a seat in the waiting area.
When his number was called, the male seized the opportunity to make his move, approaching the front counter and declaring that he was in possession of a firearm while demanding cash from the till.
Complying with the robber’s demands, the teller quickly handed a sum of cash to the male, who walked straight out of the bank with the proceeds, allowing the teller time to activate the silent alarm.
Detectives have released an image of a male that may be able to assist with inquiries.
The male is described as:
- Fair complexion
- 35 – 40 years
- Approximately 180cm
- Medium to solid build
- Dark brown hair
- Wearing a navy blue hooded jumper, green t-shirt, blue jeans and thongs.
