The first robbery occurred about 12:55 p.m. on June 23, 2005 at a Bank of America at 9875 Blackhawk. The suspect approached a teller and handed her a note demanding money and stating he had a gun. The suspect got an undisclosed amount of money and then was seen getting into the passenger seat of an older model green Toyota driven by a second individual.
