Friday afternoon bank robbery

Columbia Borough Police responded to the scene of a bank robbery at the Union Community Bank at 921 Lancaster Avenue. The bank was robbed at about 2 o'clock Friday afternoon.

 One person, determined to make a withdrawal, drove around the traffic cones and attempted to use the ATM while the investigation was in progress.  He was persuaded otherwise by a plainclothes officer.

A Brinks employee carried a satchel out the back to a waiting truck.
