A woman was robbed at gunpoint at an automatic teller machine in McCandless this morning, according to an Allegheny County emergency dispatch supervisor.

The unidentified woman was attempting a transaction at a PNC ATM at 50 McIntyre Square Drive in the McIntyre Square shopping plaza when a white male with a weapon robbed her.

The dispatcher said the man fled in a black, four-door Chevrolet car.

The armed robbery occurred at 8:09 a.m. McCandless police are investigating.

The suspect is described as a white male, of thin build, average height, with short brown hair, and in his early 20s. He was wearing a Penguins jacket with the year "1967" on the left side of the jacket. The team was founded in 1967. He also was wearing a gray knit cap with a small bill.

Police said he had been parked near the ATM as the victim drove up to it. He displayed a silver handgun with black grips and demanded that she withdraw a specified amount of money.

Anyone with information is asked to call McCandless police at 412-369-7992.

I used to live right off Sample rd. Know the area well.

I'm glad he didn't decide to take some cops with him.

I'm friends with a person that went to school with him. Apparently, he's had issues for the last couple of years and it all came to a head. I think he was trying to get caught to give him an excuse for the suicide.

I agree. At least this one didn't have to go to trial so this dirtbag could get off with only a couple years.

One less scumbag...
