Las Vegas police are seeking the public’s help in identifying a man connected to a Wednesday afternoon armed robbery of a bank in the southwest valley.

About 1 p.m., a man in his early 20s walked up to a U.S. Bank at 4640 Fort Apache Road, near Peace Way, brandished a gun and walked away with money, police said.

The man is about 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighs between 150 and 170 pounds, police said. He wore a dark ball cap with a black bandana, a long-sleeve stripped shirt and dark-colored pants. He had a gray backpack.
