Robert Hodge is wanted by SDPD in connection with a bank robbery on Genesee Avenue

San Diego police have identified the man they believe was driving a getaway car in an attempted bank robbery Tuesday.

Robert Hodge, aka Bobby Volk, is wanted in connection with the robbery at Wells Fargo on Genesee Avenue in University City around 5 p.m.

A man and a woman in a blonde wig demanded cash and used a stun gun in the attempt officials said.

Officials identified the two suspects as Laura Elshire, 41 and Casey Wilson, 27.

Wilson allegedly activated the stun gun while demanding cash from the teller officials said.

A security guard heard the stun gun, fired two shots at Wilson hitting him in the cheek. The guard also struck Elshire in the head and took her into custody.

Hodge was seen wearing black clothing and a skull cap behind the wheel of the car parked at the La Jolla Nobel apartments across the street from the bank according to police.

They believe Hodge dropped Wilson at Sharp Memorial Hospital before driving away.

Hodge was seen driving a teal 1999 Honda Civic 4-Door with the California license plate 7AIV590.

Wilson has been hospitalized for two gunshot wounds and will be arraigned Friday. Elshire has been booked at Las Colinas.
