You're a good little citizen, not asking too many questions:
1. Why did the police only release one picture? Aren't there several cameras in/around a bank?
2. Why are these men not wearing masks at the threshold of the bank? They also don't seem to have masks in their hands. If they donned the masks, where did they strap them on? In the vestibule? Not smart.
3. Why no picture of their car or path of egress?

If the police want the public's help, they're not providing enough information to be effective at all. Seriously, if the white guy in this pic was your brother, you couldn't say for certain it was him.
FCPD is a joke. They should stick to what they're good at, making non-violent situations very hostile, then accidentally killing someone, then stonewalling the prosecution who doesn't care enough to press them on it anyway.

Those are all good questions. I was just impressed they got at least one photo out the same day. Usually it takes weeks or months before they get one out.

The police never release info to the public; they view the public as 90% enemy, 10% useful idiots.

That bank has been robbed several times. Why don't they get a security guard?

Good question, one of the reasons they get robbed so much is because the crooks brag about how easily they are to rob.
