Santa Rosa police are searching for a man in connection with a bank robbery Monday morning.
The robber approached a teller at Bank of America at 2420 Sonoma Ave., pointed something at the teller through his jacket and said he was armed, police said. He handed the teller a bag and demanded money.
The teller gave an unknown amount of cash to the man, who then left the bank and fled through the parking lot on foot. No bank employees or customers were reported injured from the incident.

The robber was described as a man in his mid-20s to early 30s, about 5 feet, 8 inches tall, wearing a dark-colored or black jacket, dark-colored pants, glasses and a blue surgical mask.
