PINELLAS PARK -- Three armed men walked into the SouthTrust Bank at 10675 66th St. N about 2 p.m. Friday and robbed it.
One man remained in the lobby as the others jumped the counter and collected cash. Pinellas Park police did not reveal how much.
No one was injured.
Police believe the men might be driving a 1980s two-door "square-body" vehicle, possibly a Buick or an Oldsmobile. Such a vehicle was seen parked in the lot before the robbery. The car had a "doughnut" spare tire on the right rear.
Witnesses were unclear what direction the suspects headed after running out of the bank.
The suspects are white and in their late teens to early 20s.
Anyone with information should contact the Pinellas Park Police Department at 541-0758 or Detective Ken Blessing at 541-0726.
