Description
An armed thug robbed the Metairie Savings Bank and Trust Company, 8338 Metairie Road, Monday just before closing time and fled with $4,000. George J. Ruhlman Jr., executive vice-president, said the bank was crowded with last minute customers at the time. No one was injured. He said an alert customer noted the robbery was in progress and notified a junior bank officer but the robber fled with the money.
