Monroe County Sheriff's deputies are seeking a suspect who was caught on camera while robbing the HSBC Bank at 12 Courtney Drive in Perinton Monday afternoon.

Police say that around 4 p.m. yesterday the suspect approached the bank teller and handed him a note. Soon afterward, the suspect left the building with an undisclosed amount of cash. No weapon was displayed, but he did have a rolled up newspaper, according to sheriff’s spokesman Cpl. John Helfer.

He is described as a white male, 5'10," 150 pounds, with black hair. He was wearing a light blue shirt, a sun visor and black glasses, and was seen on surveillance cameras.

Anyone with additional information about the suspect is asked to call 911.

After two years of researching how to cook from scratch, she opened From Scratch Cakery in the Perinton Hills Plaza, with a  “We Have Cupcakes” sign near the entrance.
