A bank robber passed a note asking for money at Mt. Washington Bank, 515 Centre St., on Tuesday afternoon.
The robbery happened at 3:42 p.m., said David Estrada, a spokesman for the Boston Police.
According to scanner traffic heard by the indispensable Universal Hub, here's a description of the robber and the unexpected dash of red he may have on his outfit.
