New images, video released in Elma bank robbery

ELMA, Wash. — Police have released new images and video of a man who robbed a bank in Elma Tuesday.

The Grays Harbor County Sheriff’s Department said a man entered Anchor Bank of Elma at 3:13 p.m. on Nov. 20 and approached a female bank employee.

The robber demanded money and then fled with an undisclosed amount of cash.  No weapon was displayed.

The man is described as white, 5 feet 10 inches to 6 feet tall, with a slender build and a light-colored “soul patch,” but he was fairly clean-shaven.  He was wearing a dark-colored baseball cap, a light- colored Carhartt-type of jacket, light blue jeans and a dark pair of shoes.

The robber’s vehicle is believed to be a late 1990s or earlier 2000 white 4-door Dodge Stratus with solid black wheels.

It is believed that there was a second man who was driving the vehicle.

Surveillance systems from surrounding businesses show that the vehicle had been in the area for some time prior to the robbery.

Anyone with information about the robbery or suspects is asked to call the Grays Harbor Communications Center at 360-533-8765 or 1-800-281-6944.
