A worker at Bob's Custom Windows & Siding, which is next door to the credit union, said he saw a man running from the credit union.
Police were dispatched at 3:16 p.m. Several police squads combed the area around the branch office of Parker Community Credit Union, 1101 N. Parker Drive, after the holdup.
Officers also checked nearby storage garages, looked along the bank of the Rock River, and under the Veterans Memorial Bridge.
The incident was the second robbery of a Parker Community Credit Union branch in the past three months. A man robbed the branch at 2652 N. Lexington Drive in Janesville on Dec. 15.
A grand jury later indicted Todd A. Templeton, 37, Stoughton, in the Lexington Drive robbery as well as a bank robbery in West Baraboo.
