CHOCTAW, Oklahoma - Choctaw police are searching for a man who robbed an Arvest Bank this morning.

FBI Special Agent Gary Johnson said the man entered the bank at about 8:11 a.m., showed the teller a demand note and pulled out a gun. After gathering the money, he left the bank on foot. Johnson said it is believed the man may have entered a vehicle near SE 29th Place just south of the bank.
