KTRK dishes up worthless crime coverage

This has got to be the least thorough reporting I've ever seen in my life:
A suspect is still on the loose after robbing a southwest Houston bank. HPD officers say a teller at the Chase Bank on Bellaire at Corporate was robbed about 10:20am Tuesday. There's no word on how much money the suspect may have gotten away with. No one was injured in the robbery.
That's it. After six hours of investigative reporting, Channel 13 ascertained that the bank robber was a male, of indeterminate age, appearance, height, weight and build. He may or may not have been armed with an unknown weapon or weapons. Distinguishing marks may or may not include one or more tattoos, scars, moles, brands, amputated limbs, pimples, freckles and/or razor burn. He robbed the bank of an unknown amount of money, then fled the scene either on foot or with the help of a car, truck, SUV, skateboard, bullet train, fighter jet and/or hang glider of indeterminate age, make, model and color. Be on the lookout!
