The police want a report if 'any suspicious activity'... how about some details on what we should be looking for? Like males? Females? How they were dressed? What they were driving etc? This story is pretty vague and a little scary being so close to home.

I would like to know in the last 5 years, how many times have the Perry Hall Banks been robbed. I am talking the ones close to Joppa and Ebenezer. It seems like all the time.

Jim I think this same bank has been robbed several times. I could be mixing it up with some ATM users geting robbed but its all the same. Those few banks in that area always seem to have something going on, why is that. A few years back Super Fresh was robbed and a Police officer was shot, this is right in the same area.

@William, not only was the Super Fresh robbery in the same area, it was within 2 wks of another robbery at the same First Mariner. Since my family lives close to this location, it is a bit concerning to me. Any updates on this story?

William, Beth, I live very close also, and I think it is getting crazy. Helicopters are always flying above looking for someone. Maybe the banks should have another process for getting into the bank. Showing I.D. first, or maybe a fingerprint, so if they do get robbed, they know who did it immediately. It just seems too easy for the crooks.

I was just robbed outside this bank 2 hours ago making a night drop for my job. The bank has poor lighting, no outdoor cameras at the night deposit box. This is the second time in 6 months our people have been robbed here.
