Boise Police are searching for a bank robber on the Boise Bench. Ada County dispatch confirms that the Bank of the West on Emerald Street was robbed just before 11:00 a.m.

Police now believe the suspect traveled to the Pioneer Federal Credit Union on Fairview in Meridian where, just before 12:00 p.m., he passed a note to the teller stating he had a gun and demanded money.  Meridian Police believe the suspect then traveled to the Clarity Credit Union on Meridian Road and similarly robbed that teller just after noon.

All descriptions appear to match that of a Hispanic man in his early 30's between 5' 3" and 5' 6" tall and approximately 135 lbs.  He is described as having a mustache, wearing sunglasses, a plaid shirt dark pants and a white baseball cap with a square logo on the front.  He may be driving a dark grey or black, small, SUV or crossover type vehicle.
