A pair of thieves dressed as nuns robbed a Chicago bank, in a heist reminiscent of the Hollywood flick The Town, police said.
Det. Gerald Wodka told the Chicago Sun-Times that a man and a woman armed with guns entered a TCF bank minutes before closing Sunday at 1:58 p.m. The pair hopped over the counter and ordered a bank teller and branch manager to stuff a Nike duffel bag full of cash from the vault, Wodka said.
No one was injured and no customers were in the Palos Heights branch at the time.
Police didn't disclose how much money was taken.
The duo, in full masks, black robes and gloves similar to what actor Ben Affleck wore in the 2010 movie, fled in a silver four-door Chevrolet with tinted windows.
The FBI and Palos Heights police continue to investigate.
