Suspects still at large after shooting of 3 female bank employees in west Fort Worth

FORT WORTH -- At least two male suspects who shot and seriously injured three female bank employees in west Fort Worth are still at large and should be considered armed and dangerous, Fort Worth police said Thursday morning.

The shooting was reported as a robbery of the Veritex Bank location at 2424 Merrick Street at 9:20 a.m., Sgt. Chris Britt said. However, investigators are still trying to determine whether the gunmen intended to rob the bank.

Multiple shots were fired, Britt said. The three female employees were taken to area hospitals with serious but not life-threatening injuries, he said.

Investigators were inside the bank later Thursday morning looking for surveillance video and interviewing employees who were not injured. Police blocked off the 2400 block of Merrick Street near the intersection of Camp Bowie Boulevard.
