Whitewater police say FCCU robbery investigation ongoing; seeking the public’s help

By Kim McDarison

Whitewater Police Chief Dan Meyer recently noted that the department continues to investigate a robbery at the Whitewater branch of the Fort Community Credit Union (FCCU), 203 E. Milwaukee St. 

In an email shared Tuesday with Fort Atkinson Online, Meyer said that no arrests associated with the incident had been made. 

“We are still investigating leads in the case. We strongly encourage anyone who has any information to contact WPD,” Meyer stated in the email. 

Those with information are asked to call 262-473-0555, and use “option No. 4,” or submit an anonymous tip using P3tips.com, the chief said. 

In addition, he said: “We are also asking any residents in the neighborhoods adjacent to FCCU who may have surveillance systems to contact us if they are willing to provide footage.” 

According to information earlier released by the department, the robbery occurred Friday, May 12, at 3:11 p.m. 

At that time, police released a description of an individual of interest and credit union security camera footage of a hooded and masked individual entering the credit union building and approaching a teller. 

According to the earlier released description, police are looking for the male individual captured on security footage as he entered FCCU wearing sunglasses, a black medical mask, a gray zip-up hoodie over a bright yellow shirt with dark lettering beginning with the letter “Y” that was larger than the rest of the lettering on the upper chest, and dark cargo pants. 

Police also have released a description of a vehicle that may have been used by a suspect leaving the building at approximately 3:14 p.m. The vehicle is described as a dark hatchback with white stripes that possibly could be a newer model Mini Cooper.
