The TD Bank branch posted a notice on its front doors around 2: 30 p.m. that the location would be temporarily closed for the day due to an “emergency situation.”
The bank branch is located at Leon Avenue and Ellis Street.
Bank officials declined to comment when reached describing it as a “police matter.”
More to come.
