WHEELING, W.Va. — Wheeling police are looking for the man who robbed the Chase Bank branch on Market Street Friday afternoon.

The suspect is white with dark hair. He’s 5-8 and weighs about 145 pounds.

Police said the man didn’t show a gun to the clerk but he made a gesture like he had one. Investigators do have a surveillance photo.

The man got away with about $2,500 in cash.

It was the second bank robbery in as many weeks in Wheeling. A man held up the United Bank branch at the corner of 12th and Main streets March 25.
