\"\"Photographs of a man who shot at Gurnee police officers and robbed a credit union Friday night have been released by the FBI, with the hope they’ll lead to his capture.<\/p>\n

Authorities said the handgun-toting bandit hit Community Trust Credit Union on Route 41.<\/p>\n

Investigators said the best description they have of the suspect is that he’s a black man who donned all black clothing and a ski mask. <\/span><\/p>\n

Credit union security camera images released Tuesday by the FBI show the man holding the handgun. The suspect’s height was estimated at 5 feet 11 inches to 6 feet.<\/p>\n

Authorities said the lone robber struck the credit union at closing time, which was about 7:30 p.m. Friday.<\/p>\n

The FBI, in a statement, said it’s believed the suspect fled on foot, disappeared behind a nearby building and possibly entered a waiting vehicle.<\/p>\n

Using a handgun with a laser sight on it while fleeing, the suspect fired several shots at arriving officers, Gurnee police said. No one was injured.<\/p>\n

Neither the FBI nor Gurnee police are saying how much money the robber took from the credit union.<\/p>\n

Anyone with information about the bandit is asked to call the FBI at (312) 421-6700.<\/p>\n
