According to a press release issued by Brunswick Police Commander Mark Waltz, the Brunswick Police Department received a 911 call at 2:06 p.m. on Wednesday, reporting that a robbery had just occurred at The Bank of Maine branch at 137 Maine St.

Waltz said there were six employees inside the bank when a single male allegedly brandished a gun and demanded money. The suspect then escaped with an undisclosed amount of money.

The suspect is described as a white male in his mid-20s, weighing 140 to 150 pounds. He is said to have been wearing a “safari-type” hat which police say was apparently a dark khaki pith helmet, a tan neck warmer or scarf and a tan jacket, white-washed jeans and white sneakers, according to police.
