NANAIMO — RCMP are trying to find the lone male suspect responsible for a robbery at a north Nanaimo bank.

RCMP Cst. Gary O’Brien told NanaimoNewsNOW the CIBC branch located on the Island Hwy. just south of Costco was robbed of an undisclosed amount of cash at roughly 3:30 p.m. Monday.

O’Brien said no weapon was produced and there were no injuries before the suspect ran off.

There was no track of the suspect when police arrived, O’Brien said, and police will likely release video surveillance images to help their investigation.
