CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- Authorities are seeking two men who robbed a bank Tuesday morning in the Portage Park neighborhood.

They entered a BMO Harris Bank branch at 5960 W. Irving Park Rd. about 9 a.m. while one of them passed a note to a teller to demand cash and imply he had a weapon, the FBI said in a statement.

The pair drove away east in a gray Dodge caravan with an undisclosed amount of cash, according to a Chicago police spokeswoman.

One of the wanted men, in his 20s, wore a maroon sweatshirt, face mask and gloves, the FBI said. The other man had ripped jeans, a baseball hat, dark colored coat and a colorful face covering.

The FBI asked anyone with tips to call its Chicago office at 312-421-6700.
