Police Investigating Armed Citibank Robbery

Nassau County Police are looking for a woman who they said robbed a victim at knifepoint at a Levittown ATM.  

On Sunday at 7 p.m., detectives said that a 55-year-old male victim was withdrawing money at Citibank, located 3375 Hempstead Tpke., when he was approached by a female subject armed with a knife who threatened to stab him if he didn’t hand over his cash.    

The victim complied and handed over an undisclosed amount of money. The subject then demanded the victim remove more money, police said.
