A bank on the 900 block of Carpinteria Street was reportedly robbed on Tuesday at 1:06 p.m., the Santa Barbara Police Department stated. A woman told a teller she had a gun, though no gun was seen, and left the bank with an undisclosed amount of money. Though the bank was not named, the block holds a Mechanic’s Bank that was robbed in January.

The suspect was last seen headed southbound on Milpas Street. The police described the woman as white, mid-to-late twenties, long, light brown hair, and wearing a pink sweatshirt and black leggings.

The police ask anyone with information to contact the department at (805) 897-2376.
