SAN DIEGO — A man allegedly robbed a credit union in Mission Valley Friday, then gave a panhandler $200, police said.
The robbery occurred at 5:30 p.m. at the Navy Federal Credit Union branch on Rio San Diego Drive.
The man used a demand note to rob the credit union of an undisclosed amount of cash, San Diego Police Department Officer Darius Jamsetjee said.
A tracking device from the bank led officers to a man in the area of the robbery who was in possession of some of the stolen cash, Jamsetjee said.
The suspect is described by police as a man in his 50s, 6 feet tall, weighing about 200 pounds with gray hair. He is clean shaven and has tattoos on his neck.
The FBI is also investigating the robbery.
