A man dressed up as Santa Claus carrying a gift-wrapped box robbed a Florida bank and authorities are still searching for the bad Santa.

A SunTrust Bank in Port Orange was held up on Monday around 3 p.m., when the Santa gave a note to the teller that suggested that the package he was holding was “harmful,” My News 13 broadcast.

The Santa wore a hat, beard, wig, and sunglasses, the Orlando Sentinel reports. The man, who is believed to be in his 30s or early 40s, was described as about 6-feet tall and of medium build, the Sentinel reports.

Authorities are still searching for the Santa who fled the bank in a dark-colored car, Orlando television station WFTV reports. The amount of money the man robbed from the bank wasn't disclosed. Nobody was injured during the holdup.

Authorities evacuated the bank while a bomb squad investigated the suspicious package, which turned out not to contain any explosives.
