Writing Assignment 3 Post 4

Provident Savings Bank in the 3100 block of Greenmount Avenue was robbed by three armed men early Friday afternoon.

One suspect pointed a .22 cal sawed-off rifle at the bank manager while he ordered the four employees and two customers in the bank at that time to lie down on the floor. The other two suspects leaped over the counter and ransacked the teller's cages, then stuffed an undisclosed amount of cash into two white pillowcases.

The three suspects then ran eastward along the alley on the north side the bank where they dropped the rifle. They were lost from sight.

No injuries or arrests have been reported.
