Fed's and Local Police Seek Help in Catching Masked Bank Robbers

The Sacramento office of the FBI and local authorities are seeking the public’s help in identifying two men who robbed the Bank of America in Lincoln on June 25, 2009.

The robbery occurred at about 9:45 a.m. at the branch located at 685 South Highway 65 when two suspects entered the bank wearing masks and hoods. Both of the suspects brandished semi-automatic handguns and ordered everyone in the bank to get down on the floor.
