The Clark County Sheriff’s Office is asking for the public’s help to identify two people in a Thursday afternoon Salmon Creek bank robbery.

According to a statement from the agency, deputies responded about 4:40 p.m. to the Umpqua Bank, 2515 N.E. 134th St., just east of the Interstate 205 offramp.

The bank reported a man and a woman, both wearing medical masks, had robbed the bank. Bank staff said the man implied he had a gun. In a surveillance photo, the man can be seen reaching into his jacket for something, the sheriff’s office said.

The man and woman left the bank with an unknown amount of cash. No one was injured.

The robbers are described as a white man in his 20s or early 30s with shoulder-length brown hair, wearing a black sweatshirt under a Carhartt-style jacket. The other is a Black woman in her 20s or early 30s with brown hair, wearing a gray headband and a pink hooded sweatshirt with a black cross-body bag, according to the sheriff’s office.

The investigation is considered active.

Anyone with information about the robbery or the identity of the robbers should contact Clark County sheriff’s Detective Tanya Johnson at tanya.johnson@clark.wa.gov.
