A woman with a black semi-automatic handgun entered TD Bank in Princeton, at the corner of Route 206 and Princeton Avenue, on Sunday at 2:56 pm and presented a bank teller with a note demanding money.

The teller handed over an undetermined amount of cash, and the suspect left the bank.

The Princeton Police Department responded first to the activation of a panic alarm at the bank's address, 883 State Road. Shortly after, a teller called 911 to report a robbery.
