— As Thursday turned to Friday, Raleigh police had not found the man they say robbed the State Employees' Credit Union at 6408 Hilburn Ave., leading to an all-out search.

The robbery occurred around 4:45 p.m., and no one was reported injured in the incident.

Authorities told WRAL News the bank robber fled on foot, jumping a fence.

Multiple law enforcement agencies searched for the suspect with K9 units.

Neighbors near the area were asked to stay in their homes during the active search.

Many people said the scene was frightening, with such a large police presence in broad daylight.

At one point, officers searched Pam Long's backyard, including her sheds.

"It's just scary to think it's right beside my house," Long said. "Obviously when you see police officers coming down the streets in droves with guns drawn and the dogs racing ahead, it's a little unnerving."

Neighbor Renee Roebuck said she was startled when officers told her to go inside for her safety.

"I've never been that close to home where there was a bank robbery," Roebuck said.

While the search continues, the bank is expected to re-open Friday.
