The Freestone County Sheriff's Office is searching for a man who robbed the Donie Bank at gunpoint while wearing a fake beard and wig.

The man walked into the bank on Main Street in Donie, TX around 10:04 a.m. wearing the fake beard and wig, dark sunglasses and a baseball cap. His gray sweatshirt read "Maine East Athletic Dept." in blue or purple lettering. 

He was carrying a long barreled blued steel revolver. 

The sheriff's office said he drove away from the scene in a silver four-door passenger car that might have been a Ford Focus. He was traveling eastbound on Highway 164 toward Buffalo.
