Man threatens to blow up PNC Bank after robbing it

An unknown man told PNC Bank employees that if police investigated the scene of a bank robbery, he would blow up the bank.

The bank is located at 155 E Broad St., and the robbery occurred at approximately 9:19 a.m. Surrounding streets from 3rd to 5th St. are currently closed by police.

Employees were evacuated from the area and police are currently investigating a suspicious package the man left at the bank with a bomb robot.

The suspect is described as a 5’10” black male with a small afro, glasses and a goatee. He may be wearing a cream-colored Gap jacket with brown markings. It is unclear if he fled with any cash.
