SAN DIEGO (CNS) - The FBI Tuesday released photos of a bank robber wearing aviator style sunglasses with a mole above his lip and wearing a baseball cap with the letters"DTAK" accused of holding up a U.S. Bank branch inside a Vons supermarket.

He told the teller he was there to make a withdrawal, then passed a demand note demanding specific denominations. He placed his left hand on his left hip, simulating that he had something on his hip. The robber then put the money in a white envelope and walked away.
