Man tries to rob US Bank at Albertsons

At approximately 6:52 p.m. Thursday, Kootenai County Sheriff Deputies responded to the US Bank inside the Albertson’s store at the Prairie Shopping Center in Hayden, ID for a reported robbery.

Witnesses stated an unknown male entered the bank and pointed at the tellers with his hand in the shape of a gun.  The male demanded money from the bank employees and after a brief conversation, the male left without any money.

The male is described as in his 50’s wearing a green or grey t-shirt, khaki shorts, sandals with white socks, a camouflage hat with red messy hair, and an unshaven beard.

The male was seen leaving in a late 90’s early 2000’s silver/beige GM type extended cab truck.

Anyone with information regarding this case or who might have seen a person matching the suspect’s description, is asked to contact the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office at 208-446-1300/
