Riverside Police are looking for a man they say attempted to rob a Riverside bank on Thursday by handing the teller a note, then spitting gasoline.
The man entered the Altura Credit Union on 14th Street at about 4:20 pm, reports The Press Enterprise. He handed the teller a note demanding money, then put a filled with gasoline in his mouth, and began to spit it out towards the teller.
The bank teller was protected by a glass barrier. The man also poured gasoline on the counter, before leaving without any money.
