Federal Way police are searching for a man who robbed the Red Canoe Credit Union in Federal Way last week.

The suspect is described as a white male in his 40s to 50s with a heavy build, standing between 5 feet 8 inches and 5 feet 10 inches tall and sporting a thick mustache. Video surveillance from the robbery shows the suspect wearing a black baseball hat with neon yellow graphics on the bill and white jeans with ripped knees and a dark zip-up hoodie. He carried a red tool bag and wore glasses during the robbery.

At about 1:30 p.m. on Monday, June 27, the suspect walked into Red Canoe Credit Union (33616 Pacific Highway S.) and went to a teller. He placed a note in front of the teller that read, “This is not a joke please give me your 50s and 100s no marked bills no alarms I have a gun but I don’t want to hurt anyone.”

The teller retrieved all the money in the drawer, which consisted of one stack of $100 dollar bills and “fifty dollar denominations,” the report states. The suspect grabbed the note and money and placed it into his red tool bag. After he left, the teller activated the alarm to alert police.

Police interviewed a different teller who noticed a suspicious male in the bank just before the robbery. The teller told police she asked the male if she could help him and he said, “I’m waiting for someone.”

“[The teller] thought this was suspicious because there was only one other customer and her husband in the bank and this male was not associated with them,” the documents state.

The FBI has since been notified of the robbery.
