The Monterey County Sheriff’s Office is investigating an armed bank robbery Monday afternoon at the U.S. Bank branch in Carmel.

According to a news release, three men were seen fleeing the bank at 26380 Carmel Rancho Lane. Deputies responded to the report around 3:35 p.m.

It was reported that one suspect was armed with a handgun, but no one was harmed during the robbery. The suspects fled the scene in a grey Honda Civic or similar vehicle, according to the news release. It’s unknown how much money was stolen.

“We’re certain that there were people in that area who may have seen something and just dismissed it,” said Cmdr. Andy Rosas. “Anything that they may have seen…anything will be helpful at this point to help solve the crime.”
