FBI offering $10,000 in search for ‘Route 91 bandit’ who has ‘robbed 11 banks across 4 states’
AN armed and dangerous suspect nicknamed the 'Route 91 Bandit' allegedly robbed 11 banks across four states during a five-month spree.
FBI detectives have offered a $10,000 reward to the public as they ramp up efforts to find him.
As part of their investigations, the FBI released CCTV footage showing the suspect inside a bank in Athol, Massachusetts on November 5.
He is wearing a jumper that has the words Post University emblazoned on it.
He enters the bank and hands a sheet of paper to an employee who is sitting at a desk.
Footage then shows the suspect in a room with three bank workers.
It’s not known what is said in the clip but two workers are seen later handing the suspect a wad of cash which he puts into an envelope.
Minutes later, the Route 91 Bandit is seen leaving the premises.
Joseph R Bonavolonta, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI Boston Division, said: “In the interest of public safety, we’re asking anyone with information about this individual to contact us immediately.”
He urged: “We need to stop this man’s crime spree before someone gets hurt.”
Police say the suspected bank robber is between five foot six and five foot eight inches tall and typically wears a hood or hat and white sneakers.
The FBI is offering Americans $10,000 for information that leads to the suspect's identification, arrest and conviction.
