Be on the lookout for the Hillbilly Bandit

The Hillbilly Bandit has robbed 5
Puget Sound banks

At about 9:30am on May 9th, Everett Police officers were dispatched to Wells Fargo Bank (1801 Broadway Ave) in Everett on the report of a robbery. 

When officers arrived, the male suspect had already fled the bank and a K-9 track was unsuccessful.

The teller told officers that a male entered the bank and handed her a note demanding money. When she hesitated, the male left. No weapons were seen or implied and no money was taken.
