The FBI and the Philadelphia Police Department are seeking the public's assistance to identify and locate the subject responsible for the robbery of the Citizens Bank branch located at 2001 Market Street in Philadelphia earlier today.

At approximately 9:34 a.m., an unidentified male entered the branch and presented a threatening demand to a teller.
