The suspect demanded the technician hand over money from the ATM, then grabbed three of the boxes containing cash and ran to a waiting dark gray or black RAV 4 or Ford Escape.
The suspect hopped into the backseat and fled the scene with an unknown driver and front passenger.
A security guard who witnessed the robbery fired several rounds at the getaway vehicle, but it was not known if anyone was hit.
The suspect is believed to be between 20 and 30 years old, 5 feet 6 inches to 5 feet 9 inches tall, with a skinny build. He was wearing very distinct clothing; a reddish-orange colored hoodie and blue jeans, sagging to expose his boxer shorts, and what appears to be Jordan Retro sneakers.
There is no description of the driver and front seat passenger at this time.
