The FBI has upped a reward offered in a Middle Georgia bank robbery in which a teller was shot and wounded in November.
The initial $10,000 reward was increased $5,000 to help catch the person who held up a branch of Robins Financial Credit Union on Nov. 22 in Warner Robins, The Telegraph of Macon reported.
The suspect is a slender Black man about 5 feet, 6 inches who wore a black mask, a white T-shirt, khaki pants and gray shoes, the FBI said in a news release.
The holdup happened soon after the suspect allegedly broke into a nearby home and stole a silver Nissan that was believed to have been used in the credit union heist, the FBI said.
Police responded to a home invasion call in the 100 block of West Imperial Circle, according to a November news release. A man armed with a gun kicked down the door of a home and stole the owner’s keys and a silver 2018 Nissan, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution previously reported.
The car eventually was found at Lake Vista Apartments.
