Wanted by the FBI: AK-47 Bandit
An alleged serial bank robber known as the AK-47 Bandit has struck again. The FBI needs your help to identify and track him down.
“The FBI is working with law enforcement officials spanning three separate regions in the western United States,” said Ayn Sandalo Dietrich, of the FBI’s Seattle Division. “This is very important to us that we’re able to stop this guy before he causes any more physical harm to people.”
The unknown armed bank robber hit up the Chase Bank in North Bend, Washington on July 6. He’s linked to two other robberies in Los Angeles and Sacramento back in February and March.
“We think it’s the same guy because of similarities in his methods, particularly the fact that he was armed with an AK-style rifle,” Dietrich said. “And he also was wearing a full-faced black ski mask.”
A reward of up to $20,000 is available for information leading to the suspect’s arrest. To report a tip, call your local FBI office.
