Cedarburg police said the Port Washington State Bank on Washington Avenue was robbed around 3:15 p.m. that day. Officers were called while the robbery was in progress. They arrived, set a perimeter and searched the area but did not find the suspect.
According to a criminal complaint, a bank employee said the robber walked in and said he wanted money – "no dye packs." The employee said the robber then jumped the teller's counter and "corralled bank staff away from the station in an aggressive manner." He grabbed money out of a teller's drawer, jumped back over the counter and ran off.

Surveillance video from a nearby business captured the robber. Court filings said police identified the robber as Moburg "based on past contacts." A witness said Moburg got into a getaway car near Washington and Spring, roughly a block south of the bank.
Additional surveillance showed Moburg going into the Grafton Target roughly 15 minutes after the bank robbery. It showed him making two cash purchases: One for an unknown amount of gift cards, the second for a cellphone charger. He left the store just before 7 p.m.
Court filings did not specify how much money was stolen.
