Suspect
Nicknamed the Haggler Bandit
An unidentified male bank robber has
been linked to three bank robberies and two attempted bank robberies in the
past week; four of the incidents occurred in the past day. The Haggler Bandit
is described as an unidentified black male, 5’8” and 6’0” tall, 150-170 lbs.,
and anywhere from in his late 20s to 40 years of age. The suspect was given the
nickname “Haggler Bandit” based on the fact that victim tellers described him
as having “haggled” to some extent over the amount of money he expected to
receive based on his demand for cash. The suspect passes a note to the victim
teller during the robberies. During today’s (August 31, 2012) attempted
robbery, the suspect verbally threatened a weapon.
This case is being investigated by the
Pasadena Police Department, the Monrovia Police Department, the Los Angeles
Police Department, and the FBI. Anyone with information as to the identity of
the Haggler Bandit should contact one of these agencies or dial 911. In
southern California, the FBI may be reached 24 hours a day at 888-CANT-HIDE
(888-226-8443).
