The Lee County Sheriff’s Office is currently investigating an armed bank robbery at the Truist Bank on 14490 Palm Beach Blvd in Olga.

LCSO responded to the call with approximately 10 police cruisers and deployed one helicopter to survey the scene on Tuesday morning.

“I wasn’t thinking anything because he didn’t even have a mask on. So I’m like he just regular dude going in for some money,” said Jean Carlos, who said he saw the suspect walk in.
