FBI Media Alert: FBI, Albuquerque Police Look for Nike Cap-Wearing Bank Robber

An unidentified man wearing a blue Nike baseball cap robbed a northeast Albuquerque bank on Friday, October 1, 2021, likely the second bank robbery this suspect has committed in less than a week.

The suspect robbed U.S. Bank, 5620 Wyoming Blvd. NE, at approximately 11:38 a.m.

He is described as a white male in his 20s to 30s, approximately 5'7” tall, and weighing about 120 pounds.

The suspect wore a blue Nike baseball cap, a white hospital mask, a long-sleeve red plaid shirt, blue hospital gloves, and blue jeans.

He entered the bank and presented a demand note to a teller, who handed over an undisclosed amount of money to the suspect.

The Albuquerque Police Department is assisting with this investigation.
