BONITA SPRINGS, Fla.- Deputies are searching for a man in connection with a bank robbery at the Fifth Third Bank located on 8800 W. Terry Street.

A red dye pack was deployed, and the vehicle or suspect may have red dye on them, authorities said. “We urge the community, if you see anything give us a call, ’cause we want to get to the bottom of this as quickly as we can and bring that perpetrator to justice,” said Lt.
