2 Wells Fargo banks, 1 Home Depot robbed in Jacksonville and Orange Park

Authorities said two early afternoon robberies at an Orange Park Wells Fargo and Home Depot were similar in nature, and meanwhile another Wells Fargo in Jacksonville was robbed Friday morning.

The Clay County Sheriff's Office said the first happened about 1:45 p.m. at the 400 Blanding Blvd. bank and the other within the hour at the 1919 Wells Road home-improvement store. It was unclear if the man had a weapon, but he implied he did.

The Sheriff's Office hasn't given a description but provided a blurry surveillance image of a man with a graying beard wearing long shorts, a white T-shirt and a ball cap.

In Jacksonville, the Sheriff's Office said a man robbed the 1562 Atlantic Blvd. Wells Fargo about 9:30 a.m. That robber was described as a black man, 40 to 50 years old, 5-foot-11 to 6-foot and 180 pounds. He was bald with a mustache and was wearing a florescent yellow T-shirt, blue jeans and boots.

The Sheriff's Office said he passed a note to the teller demanding money. After getting the money, he left in an unknown direction and police witnesses were unsure if he used a vehicle. He did not display or indicate he had a weapon.
