SUNNYSIDE, Wash. -- An armed, masked woman robbed a bank in this Lower Valley city late this morning, according to police.

The woman, described as Hispanic, 5-foot-5 and 120 to 130 pounds, entered the Banner Bank at 911 E. Edison Ave. at about 11:30 a.m. wearing black clothes, a blue bandana, black gloves and a yellow surgical mask, according to a police news release.

She gave a teller a note demanding money and displayed a gun, leaving with an undisclosed amount. No shots were fired and nobody was injured.

Police have no suspects and ask anyone with information to call 509-836-6200. The Federal Bureau of Investigation is assisting with the investigation.
