  • Special Agent Shauna Dunlap (713) 936-7638

The FBI Bank Robbery Task Force needs your help in identifying a man now suspected of robbing at least three Houston area banks. The latest occurred at the Associated Federal Credit Union located at 16400 El Camino Real in Houston, Texas, on 08/23/2010. The male robber was nicknamed because of his unique large stature which is depicted in the bank’s surveillance photos.

At approximately 2:00 p.m., the man entered the bank, and gave a demand note to one of the tellers. The teller provided him with some cash. He fled the bank on foot in an unknown direction. No getaway vehicle was observed. No weapon was observed during the robbery. No one was physically hurt.

The “XXXL Bandit” is described as a white male, late 28-35, approximately 5’10”-5’11” tall, 275-300 pounds, and cleanly shaven. He wore a white and maroon baseball-type cap, red pull-over shirt, shorts, and sunglasses.

The “XXXL Bandit” is also suspected in the robbery of the Wells Fargo located inside the Randall’s store at 2323 Clear Lake City Boulevard in Houston, Texas, on 07/12/2010, and another robbery which occurred at the Associated Federal Credit Union on 08/05/2010. The latest surveillance photographs are attached, along with a few photos from the robbery on 07/12/2010.
