FBI Seeking Help Finding Unknown Bank Robber

Friday January 9, 2009
The FBI is seeking the public's help in trying to identify an unknown robber who is suspected in several bank robberies in Northern Virginia and Southern Maryland. The robberies occurred between October 2007 and October 2008.

The robber specifically targeted Navy Federal Credit Unions in the area.

According to the FBI, the suspect would stand in line and wait for the next available teller. He would verbally demand money and pull out a plastic bag. He would instruct the tellers to give him no dye packs or make no noise. After getting the money, the suspect would leave the bank and flee the area in a vehicle, possibly driven by an accomplice.


Unknown Bank Robber

In his most recent robbery, the suspect used a semi-automatic pistol to force bank employees into the bank vault where he forced them to give him the cash in the vault.

Witnesses describe the robber has being unshaven with slight facial hair. He also has crooked teeth. He sometimes wears latex gloves and sometimes puts bandages on his fingertips.
