BUFFALO GROVE, Ill. (CBS) -- The FBI on Thursday evening was looking for a robber who held up a bank in Buffalo Grove.

The man walked into the BMO Bank at 500 W. Half Day Rd. in Buffalo Grove, and displayed a demand note while implying he had a handgun, the FBI said. Buffalo Grove said they were called to the scene at 3:23 p.m.

The FBI did not specify whether the robber got away with any money, and if so, whether a dye pack was included with the proceeds.

The robber is described as a white male between about 30 and 40 years of age, standing about 6 feet tall and weighing 180 pounds.

He was wearing a long-sleeved shirt, a black jacket, a baseball cap, dark pants, and white sneakers, and he had facial hair and acne scars on his face, the FBI said.
