A man in a wig and sunglasses robbed a Near North Side Bank on Tuesday afternoon, according to authorities.

At around 3:30 p.m., the man passed a note announcing the robbery to a teller at the Fifth Third Bank at 29 W. Divison St. He received an unspecified amount of cash, and fled on foot. He never implied or displayed a weapon. No one was injured.

The man, who Chicago police said was in his 60s, was slim and wore all black. Because this was a totally non-violent crime, we feel okay delighting in this mystical description of him, courtesy of BanditTrackerChicago (a site to which the FBI referred us):

Wow.

The FBI is currently investigating this case.
