According to police radio the suspect is a white male, short dark hair, 25-30 years old, olive complexion with a black sweatshirt and jeans. He fled in a black Infinity sedan, possibly a G35, with tinted windows onto Rt. 34 South and then Rt. 18 North. He showed a gun and threatened to shoot the teller so he's definitely dangerous.

Looking at his photo, I'd be more inclined to describe him as a hispanic male rather than a white male.

When's the last time someone got away with this crime? The criminal mind must be a very small one.

I don't think he looks Hispanic at all. His features appear to be more Middle-Eastern to me.
fed up

I agree, he is not white. Maybe hispanic or indian or pakistan or like Holmdel Girl says middle-eastern. Did anyone notice his expression? He does not look the least bit nervous. He actually looks very confident. When was the last time a bank was held up and the person was not caught? Someone will drop a dime on him. this photo is pretty clear.

no camera's in the lot ?
wonder if he had a permit for that gun ? if all the tellers and customers had guns I don't think he would have robbed the bank

I'm sure that most employers not allow thei employees to carry guns at work if NJ allowed them to carry.I worked for a nation wide company,with offices in rught to carry states,and this waw 1 of their rules.Carrying a gun anywhere on company property,pernit or not,resulted in being fired.

I might be crazy but, this guy looks like a guy who drives around in the same car at Saw Creek Estates in PA. I'll have to keep an eye out.

Pretty brazen not wearing some kind of hat or disguise. He'll be caught.
