Downtown Bank Robbery

The Keystone National Bank and Trust (formerly Nazareth National Bank) on the corner of Main and Belvidere in Nazareth was robbed on Tuesday according to reports in the Morning Call (couldn't find the online link, but read the article) and the Express-Times (read it here).

Both articles indicated that the robber entered the back of the building, jumped the counter, grabbed money, and exited. Dye packs in the money burst in the alley outside and the robber fled in a green car. The robber switched cars behind Kraemer Textile. The initial car had been stolen last week in Bethlehem.

The Express-Times article indicates that the robber switched to a red chevy cavalier.

If you saw anything or have any information contact Nazareth Police Chief Ruch, nazpd "at" rcn.com (don't forget to switch the at with @).
