The Miami Springs Washington Mutual Bank located at 4475 NW 36 Street was robbed by a Senior Citizen. The elderly man, described to be in his 60s, got away with over $7,000 cash and is currently on the loose.
The man calmly entered the bank on Saturday, August 11th and asked for $15,000. He was holding a cardboard box and claimed to have a bomb inside. He also claimed to have remote assistance outside.
