Suspects rob Elmhurst bank, flee

Two men robbed a TCF bank inside an Elmhurst grocery store Saturday and fled with an undisclosed amount of cash, authorities said.

The robbery happened around 12:30 p.m. inside a Jewel-Osco store at 153 E. Schiller St., just north of York Street. Special Agent Joan Hyde of the FBI’s Chicago office said two black men presented a teller with a note and fled with cash. No injuries were reported.

It wasn’t immediately clear if the suspects were armed, Hyde said, citing preliminary reports. After the robbery, they were seen heading north on Schiller, according to police dispatches.
