Man Threatens Bank of America Staff in Reston After Being Told to Wear Mask

(Updated at 1:30 p.m.) Local police are urging surrounding jurisdictions to exercise caution after a man threatened staff at a Bank of America location (11900 Baron Cameron Avenue) today.

According to the Fairfax County Police Department, the man threatened staff after they told him to wear a mask at around 9:21 a.m.

Sgt. Hudson Bull told Reston Now the man reportedly became “disorderly and threatened the staff before leaving.”

A description of the suspect was shared with neighboring police departments, including Arlington County police, which said in a be-on-the-lookout broadcast that the man had threatened to shoot bank employees and should be considered armed and dangerous.

“Officers are continuing to investigate this case and put out an informational message to surrounding jurisdictions for their awareness,” Bull said.
