"He was wearing a black toboggan and large Grey Jacket."
I think, based on the photo, that you mean grey 'toboggan' and black jacket.

Heck, it could all be a misunderstanding. He could be there to inform the teller that "we're gonna need a lot of money" to fix her car, and then he flashes a pneumatic lug wrench so she knows who he is, and suddenly blammo!! he's a fugitive.
