State Police in Franklin County are searching for a bank robber who held up an M&T Bank in Guilford Township. Schools near that area were on lockdown earlier Thursday, but that has since been lifted.
According to State Police, the robber came into the bank and put some type of bag on the counter and said it would explode if they didn't give up the money. Officers later searched that bag, and did not find explosives.
Police tell CBS 21 News the bank robbery happened around 12:30 Thursday afternoon at the M&T Bank on Lincoln Way East in Guliford Township.
No one was hurt during the robbery.
Several schools around that area were partially locked down, but the lockdown has since been lifted and students were able to go home.
The Chambersburg Area Schools Superintendent released a statement saying, "We were informed by the State Police at approximately 1:15 about the issue at the M&T Bank. The buildings that were closest to the area went on a modified lockdown, which means the students were kept inside."
The man was described as wearing a black ski coat, cap and glasses. They also said he is about 6' tall.
