Wonder What the Note Said?

In early July, an unidentified man, determined to rob a bank, pulled up to the drive-up window in an old mini-van in LaSalle, put a hold-up note in the tube and sent it into the bank.

The teller complied with the note, sending back $56,000 in cash as was demanded.

The Chicago FBI spokesperson did not reveal exactly what the note said, other than to state that no weapon was displayed or implied. The robber has not been apprehended.
