The armored vehicle courier was servicing an ATM outside the bank when two armed men got out of a dark-colored SUV and started firing at the armored vehicle, according to the FBI.
The driver inside the armored vehicle honked the horn to alert the courier, who ran to the front of the vehicle for cover, the FBI said.
The men took off with the bag that the courier dropped.
They are described as two black men who possibly speak Spanish. They were wearing gray and dark-colored hooded jackets, and bandanas covered their faces. One of the men was seen carrying a rifle.
