(FARMERSBURG) - Indiana State Police looking for a man who robbed the 1st Farmers Bank and Truck in Farmersburg Thursday morning.
Thursday morning at 10:38, Sullivan County Sheriff's Office received a 911 call from the staff at the bank located at 11612 North US 41 in Farmersburg, reporting a bank robbery.
When Indiana State Police arrived the man had fled with an undisclosed amount of money.
The male suspect is believed to be in his 50s, medium build, 5-8 to 5-10, clean shaven, wearing dark glasses, dark ball cap, blue shirt and blue pants. He fled on foot from the bank in an unknown direction.
