As the Journal-World previously reported, police responded to a reported robbery at the southern Lawrence bank on Sept. 21. Several officers were seen outside of the bank around 10 a.m.

Amy Grose, a spokeswoman for Truity Credit Union, later confirmed to the Journal-World that a robbery took place at the bank around 9:30 a.m. She said that an individual who appeared to be carrying some sort of weapon took an undetermined amount of cash from a customer service employee.

Grose said the bank would review security footage and provide the footage to law enforcement to help identify a suspect.
