Robber fires gun during robbery of Orland Park bank

Authorities say no one was injured when a gunman fired shots inside a First Midwest Bank branch in Orlan d Park during a robbery Monday.

FBI spokeswoman Joan Hyde says the robber took an unknown amount of money during the robbery.

Orland Park police Cmdr. John Keating says the gunman fled into a residential area near the bank. Police armed with dogs searched the area but were unable to track down the suspect.

Keating says the bank was empty when the robbery began. A male customer came in while the crime was taking place and was shot at. He was uninjured.

First Midwest Bank spokesman James Roolf refused to say how much money was stolen because an investigation is ongoing. He said the bank will be open Tuesday.
