Picture shows Spokane credit union robber

A man robbed the Spokane Teachers Credit Union branch on Indian Trail Road this afternoon.

The man handed a teller a note shortly after 2:30 p.m. that said he had a gun, but he never displayed one, police said.

The robber left on foot with an undisclosed amount of cash. No one was injured.

Witnesses thought the robber may have headed north from the bank, at 8703 N. Indian Trail Road.

The robber is described as in his early 30s, white, between 5-foot-10 and 6 feet tall, with a thin-to-medium build. He wore a black windbreaker jacket, jeans and a black knit cap with a gray stripe around the rim.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Check at (509) 456-2233.

It's the third robbery at a Spokane County financial institution this week.
