Fake Armored Car Guard Takes $100,000 from Wal-Mart

by KYW's Matt Leon

Philadelphia Police are investigating the robbery of a Wal-Mart store in Franklin Mills, where a man dressed as a armored car security guard fooled employees and walked out with a big payoff.

According to Philadelphia Police Sgt. Roland Lee, it happened around noon Sunday when a man, dressed as an armored car guard, entered the store:

"He went to the Wal-Mart store, posed as the person, and he took over a hundred thousand dollars in cash and checks in a deposit that was supposed to be deposited to an armored car carrier."

Employees thought it was a regular pick-up until the real armored car guard showed up about a half-hour later.

The suspect is described as a black man in his mid-20s, with a thin build, a goatee, and dark braided hair.
