    WALDOBORO — Waldoboro Police are seeking the public’s help with identifying a man who robbed Camden National Bank Monday afternoon, July 17.

    At approximately 2:30 p.m., Officer Chris Spear and Police Chief Bill Labombarde responded to the Camden National Bank branch on Atlantic Highway (Route 1) in Waldoboro for the report of a robbery at that location.

    According to a news release from Labombarde, police learned that a white male, approximately 6-feet-tall with a slender build, entered the bank wearing a dark colored nylon stocking and a large floppy hat. He passed a note to the teller demanding money — to which she complied. No weapon was ever displayed.

    The subject then left the bank on foot in an unknown direction of travel.

    Detectives from the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Department and a Maine State Police K-9 also assisted at the scene.

    This is an on-going investigation and no further information is available at this time.

    Anyone who may have witnessed anything related to this crime or who may have information regarding it, are urged to contact Chief Bill Labombarde at (207) 832-4500 or by cellphone at (207) 380-9222.
