Lakewood Police Detectives are searching for the man who robbed the Commerce Bank on Route 9 and Kennedy Boulevard on Shabbos afternoon.

Shortly after 1:00PM, the suspected robber presented a note to a teller demanding money, and managed to get away with an undisclosed amount of money.

The suspect is believed to be a white or Hispanic male between the ages of 23 and 26 years old, and was wearing a gray, hooded sweat shirt, a red T-shirt and a dark baseball cap. 

Detectives do not believe that the man was armed when he robbed the bank.

This is not the first time this bank was robbed – as YWN reported a robbery on 12/31/07 (HERE). It is unknown if that suspect was ever arrested.
