Police are seeking the public’s assistance in tracking down a suspect in a bomb threat at the Bank of Butterfield following the emergence of new CCTV footage.

At around 10am on August 12, a staff member at the bank received a telephone call indicating that there was a bomb located at the Rosebank Centre branch. Police were alerted and staff were evacuated.

A Police spokesman said an investigation has led to the recovery of CCTV images, believed to show the suspect and their bike in the Heron Bay area.

“The suspect is wearing a distinctive burgundy hooded top,” the spokesman said. “The bike is believed to be a silver/grey Yamaha Cygnus with a metal basket. This type of basket is not normally associated with this make/model of bike.

“Some members of the community will know the identity of this person. Anyone with information is urged to come forward to assist in bringing this offender to justice.

Anyone with information about the incident or the suspect is urged to call Detective Inspector Colin King at the Criminal Investigation Department on 247-1252 or 295-0011, or Detective Constable Tiffany Caisey on 247-1072.
