Police said the man remained at large after the attempted robbery on Wednesday in New Rochelle, about 40 km north of New York City. "He slipped a note through the teller's slot that said 'money in bag,'" said police Capt. Joseph Schaller said.
"She refused and with that, she activated the alarm, turned away from the window and he ran out the door." The bank closed briefly but soon reopened for business, police said.
