POTTSTOWN — A man reportedly attempted to rob the National Penn Bank branch at the intersection of High and Franklin streets Friday afternoon.
Approximately 10 police officers responded to the bank around 3:45 p.m. after the suspect fled down South Franklin Street.
Some officers were interviewing bank employees and any witnesses inside the bank, while others walked around the block talking to residents who were standing near the scene.
According to Montgomery County Emergency Dispatch, the suspect was a white male in his 30s wearing a brown, hooded sweatshirt. The sweatshirt may have had some kind of a logo on its back, police believe.
