Bridgeport Police Seek Male Bank Robbery Suspect Donning Female Wig

Bridgeport police are asking for the public's help in identifying a bank robbery suspect caught on surveillance video footage after a robbery at the Main Street TD Bank branch on Friday night.

The bank robber was likely driving a white Chevy Suburban and parked it on Minturn Street in Bridgeport before walking to the bank at 4865 Main Street, police said. He robbed the TD Bank branch at about 6:25 p.m. on Friday, ran to the car and drove the wrong way on Minturn Street to Old Town Road, according to police. 

Police described the bank robber as a clean-shaven man, likely in his mid-30s, who is about 6-foot-1 and weighs about 190 pounds. He was wearing dark sunglasses, a black New York Yankees baseball cap and a "long female-type wig," police said based on preliminary interviews in the early stages of the investigation.

Police ask anyone with information to call Det. Art Calvao at 203-581-5240.
