The First Bank at 17100 Smoky Hill Road in Arapahoe County was robbed at about 2:45 p.m. today leading to a nearby school being placed on what Arapahoe County authorities described as a “secure perimeter.”
Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson said the suspect was in his early 20s and was 5 feet 5 inches to 5 feet 7 inches tall.
Robinson said the suspect showed no weapon and made a verbal demand for the money.
Trails West Elementary School, 5400 Waco St., was placed on a “secure perimeter” meaning children were not able to leave the school and parents were advised to pick them up.
The sheriff said that the children were never in danger.
