Oklahoma City police and FBI officers are looking for a man they say robbed a bank inside an Oklahoma City Wal-Mart Tuesday afternoon.

About 12:30 p.m., a man police believe is in his 50s or early 60s walked into the Arvest Bank inside of the store at 6100 W Reno, and told a teller that he had a gun and was robbing the bank, an FBI news release said.

A gun never was actually seen by any of the bank's employees and no one was hurt as the man gathered the money and exited the store, the release says.

The amount of money stolen was not released.

Police described the man as white or America Indian, in his 50s or early 60s, 5-foot, 6-inches to 5-foot, 9-inches tall, and weighing about 200 pounds, with grayish hair. He was wearing a blue jacket, light colored pants or blue jeans and a red NASCAR style ball cap, the release says.

The Oklahoma Banker's Association is offering a reward of up to $2,000 for information leading to the identification, arrest or conviction of anyone involved, FBI spokesman Gary Johnson said.

Anyone with information regarding the robbery is asked to call the FBI at 290-7770. Callers may remain anonymous.

And where was the security guard? On a donut break?

Let me guess, the security camera was a crappy Fisher Price camera with the quality of a Loch Ness Monster sighting video....if you would invest in a decent camera system you would catch these goons and get your money back.
