FREDERICK COUNTY, MD - A scare for a few banks this afternoon in Walkersville, after a man presented a note to a teller saying he had a bomb.
The incident caused officials to close Frederick Street and set up a perimeter. School buses took alternate routes home and two neighboring banks were ordered to close and evacuate. A bomb detection dog was brought in to search all three banks, but no bomb was found.
Police say the suspect got away in a green/blue 2011 Toyota Yaris, with Maryland License Plate 1AH2856.
