Fort Wayne Police are trying to gather more information about two men who robbed the Chase Bank on Lower Huntington Road at gunpoint this morning.  The men were armed, wearing black mask and dark hooded sweatshirts. 

 

Just 24 hours after the Midwest America Federal Credit Union on Swinney Avenue was hit. The same scenario played out in Waynedale.

 

Employees arriving for work are approached by two men in dark hooded sweatshirts, with black masks over their faces, forcing the employees inside.

 

    Fort Wayne Police Spokesman John Chambers says it's too early to know if the two are related.  But police are analyzing the style in which the criminals work.

 

The robbery happened around 8 this morning.  A least one robber pistol-whipped a male employee, they were treated for minor injuries at the scene.

 

Police say they cannot confirm if that employee was uncooperative or not/ FWPD says they are boosting up bank patrols.
