Police were questioning an older-looking man who was a suspect in a bank robbery Tuesday, just hours after he fled the area on a lime green bicycle.
Police circulated pictures of a gray-haired man, wearing a goatee and glasses on their Facebook page earlier Tuesday, saying they were trying to find him, according to the post.
The robbery occurred about 12:30 p.m. at the Wells Fargo Bank in the 6700 block of Boulevard 26, the post said. By 7 p.m., authorities had a suspect in custody, but were still investigating.
The man was wearing a pink floral Hawaiian shirt but had on a black tank top underneath and may have taken off the top shirt, according to police.
The suspect was last seen leaving the area on a lime green bicycle in the 4000 block of Scruggs Drive.
Students and staff at Mullendore Elementary School were ordered to shelter-in-place earlier in the afternoon but the school resumed normal operations about 2 p.m., police said.
Police are asking that anyone with information call dispatchers at 817-281-1000.
