Police in Newport looking for "Gilligan" bank robber




A manhunt is on for a suspect police say robbed the TD Bank in Newport Wednesday just after 9:00 a.m. Police say the man, who was in his late teens to early 20s, was wearing a sailor's hat similar to the one Bob Denver wore as Gilligan from the TV show, Gilligan's Island. They say he got away in a "red medium sized car" which should really narrow it down.
