Two gunmen with nylon stockings pulled over their heads burst into a Washington Mutual bank branch Wednesday and ordered everyone to the floor. They fled with an unknown amount of cash.
The robbery happened about 2:40 p.m. in the 3900 block of East Thousand Oaks Boulevard, said FBI Special Agent Leane Blevins.
None of the 15 employees and customers inside was hurt.
The robbers, described as nicely dressed in pressed pants and long-sleeved shirts, fled in a car driven by a third man, Blevins said.
