Pinellas County deputies are searching for a man who robbed a bank while dressed as a woman.

The robbery occurred about 4 p.m. today at Bank of America, 2551 Tarpon Woods Blvd. The suspect implied he had a gun. No one was hurt.

The suspect is described as a black male, about 5-foot-10 and 175 pounds. He was wearing a wig, a purple sweater and black stretch pants, deputies say.

He appears to have run from the scene to a nearby neighborhood, where he forced a man to give him a ride to Philippe Park, a Pinellas County Sheriff's Office news release states.
