The suspect fled the bank and was last seen running north. A perimeter was quickly set up, but the suspect was not found.

Since you can’t CC in a bank, how deep is the customer in doodoo?
Good Question RL.
It brings to light the issue of Criminals and Terrorist taking advantage of “Gun Free Zones” or Legally Protected Locations. Personally, I disagree with about 75% of the State CC Laws in TX..what good is being armed if a large percentage of the places you visit regularly are restricted? And what really pisses me off is businesses who decide to post 30.06/30.07 signs just because of the owners personal political views. The H-E-B Grocery chain in Texas is a great example. No Open Carry but Concealed Carry is fine. Huh?
As for if you can carry in a Bank or not, most States restrict it, in this case, in Washington State it is ILLEGAL to carry in any FDIC Insured Bank. For those interested you can check this site to review any State Concealed Carry Laws:
