Man Robs World Savings and Loan

A fortysomething bandit wearing a pink dress shirt and carrying a daily organizer robbed a Ventura savings and loan Thursday, authorities said.

The clean-shaven, bespectacled man passed a note to a teller about 1:50 p.m. at a branch of World Savings and Loan Assn. at 2704 E. Thompson Blvd., said FBI Agent Larry Dick.

No weapon was seen during the robbery, and the man--whom Dick described as older than the average bank robber--fled from the area on foot.

The bandit is described as about 40 years old, 5-foot-10 and weighing 160 to 170 pounds. He has a ruddy complexion and short, sandy brown hair that might be graying. He wore prescription glasses with black rims and khaki or blue pants.

Thursday’s heist is Ventura County’s fourth this year, Dick said.
