Bank Robber Strikes Again in South Philly

FBI Philadelphia January 03, 2011

The Philadelphia Police Department and the FBI are seeking the public’s assistance to identify and locate the subject responsible for the robbery of the TruMark Federal Credit Union branch located at 1931 South Broad Street earlier today. The same subject is believed to be responsible for the robbery of the Sovereign Bank branch located at 2701 South 10th Street on December 31, 2010.

In both robberies, the subject presented threatening demand notes to tellers and fled the area of the banks on foot after obtaining undisclosed amounts of cash. The subject is described as a black male in his 40’s, approximately 6’0” tall, medium build, clean shaven. In the New Year’s Eve robbery he was wearing a black Phillies baseball cap, and a dark hooded sweatshirt over a brown heavy coat. In today’s robbery, which occurred at about 11:00 a.m., he was wearing a dark knit ski cap and a dark heavy coat.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Philadelphia Police Department or the FBI’s Violent Crimes Task Force at 215-418-4000. There may be a reward for information leading to this subject’s capture, and tipsters can remain anonymous.
