Police: Vienna Bank Robbed by Masked Men at Gunpoint

A Vienna bank was robbed by two masked men at gunpoint Tuesday, the Vienna Police Department noted Friday in the department’s weekly crime report.

On Tuesday, Jan. 20, at approximately 2:53 p.m., two men entered the Bank of America located at 235 Maple Avenue West in Vienna, and robbed the bank.
