A surveillance photograph of one of the men who robbed a Lynnwood Bank of America this afternoon.

-- From Times staff reporter Mike Carter:

Lynnwood police and the FBI have responded to a bank robbery in Lynnwood in which at least one gunshot was fired.

FBI spokeswoman Robbie Burroughs said two men entered the Bank of America branch near 196th Street Southwest and Highway 99 this afternoon and demanded money from a teller. One of the men had a shotgun and it's believed he fired the weapon on the way out of the bank.

Burroughs said there are no reports of injuries and that agents and police are searching the area for suspects. Burroughs said the two men were wearing masks.

Burroughs said a reward of up to $10,000 is being offered for information that leads to the identification and arrest of the suspects. Anyone with information about the robbery should call the FBI at 206-622-0460.
