Around 9:30 this morning, officers were called to the TD Canada Trust Bank at 364 Scott Street in St. Catharines. 

An unknown male entered the bank, and demanded cash from a clerk, threatening violence. 

An undisclosed amount of cash was handed over, and the suspect fled.

The exploded dye pack was found near the bank. 

Despite the assistance of the K-9 Unit, the NRP was unable to locate the suspect. 

No one inside the bank was hurt. 

The suspect is described as a black male between the ages of 20 and 30. 

He is about 5'7" and has a slim build. 

He was wearing a black face covering, a black hooded sweatshirt, black pants, black socks and flip flops.
