Petaluma police are seeking a young man suspected of robbing the Wells Fargo Bank branch at 800 N. McDowell Blvd. on Friday afternoon.

The robber handed a teller a note demanding money shortly after 2:30 p.m., Police Sgt. Ed Crosby said. The teller handed over an undisclosed amount of money and the robber fled on foot.

Released photos from the bank show a young man who Crosby said appears to be in his 20s. The robber was wearing dark glasses, a black knit cap and a black T-shirt. Police added that he also wore khaki pants and white shoes.

“There was no weapon seen, no weapon produced,” Crosby said. No one was injured during the robbery.

The suspect was last seen walking north from the bank on Wood Sorrell Drive.
