Police are on the hunt for two men who robbed a bank in Jackson Heights last week.

On Thursday, Oct. 8, two unmasked men walked into a Santander Bank branch located at 83-20 Roosevelt Ave., according to the NYPD.

One of the men handed a note, demanding money, to a teller, while the second man stood behind him, cops said. The teller complied, handing over an unknown amount of cash to the robbers, according to the NYPD.

The two men ran out of the bank, fleeing westbound on Roosevelt Avenue.
