The FBI Rocky Mountain Safe Streets Task Force and Wheat Ridge Police Department Need Your Help Identifying an Armed Bank Robber

The FBI Rocky Mountain Safe Streets Task Force and Wheat Ridge Police Department need your help identifying an armed bank robber. The bank where the robbery occurred is:

BCS Credit Union
4203 North Wadsworth Boulevard
Wheat Ridge, Colorado
August 23, 2019, 9:56 a.m.

The suspect is described as a Hispanic male, 25 to 35 years old, 160 to 170 pounds, and approximately 5’5” tall. The suspect wore a black hoodie, dark pants, dark sunglasses, a Colorado Rockies baseball hat, and a mask.

The suspect entered the bank, approached the tellers, brandished a firearm, and demanded money. He then fled the bank northbound on Wadsworth Boulevard on a blue mountain bike.

Please be on the lookout for anyone matching the suspect’s description. Be aware of anyone similar who might have recently changed their spending habits or discussed coming into money suddenly.

Bank robbery is punishable up to a 20-year prison sentence for each offense and increases if a dangerous weapon is used in the commission of the crime.

The FBI continues to provide financial institutions with the best practices for security to make them less vulnerable to robberies.

If anyone has any information on the bank robbery above, or any bank robbery, please call the FBI Rocky Mountain Safe Streets Task Force at 303-629-7171; or, you can remain anonymous and earn up to two thousand dollars ($2,000) by calling CRIMESTOPPERS at 720-913-STOP (7867).
