One Glove Bandit Strikes Third New York City Bank

This morning, at approximately 8:57 a.m., a Chase Bank located at 57-27 Main Street in Flushing, New York, was robbed at gunpoint. A black-Hispanic male entered the bank, approached several tellers, and demanded cash while pointing his silver/grey hand gun at bank staff. The individual fled on foot with a large amount of money. This is the One Glove Bandit’s third alleged robbery—each one is increasingly more violent.

The One Glove Bandit was described as roughly 5’8” tall, 190 to 195 lbs, with slight facial hair, and of medium build. He was last seen wearing a blue Yankee hat, large black sunglasses, and a blue and black long-sleeve plaid shirt. The One Glove Bandit is also believed to have robbed:

• Signature Bank located at 84 Broadway, Brooklyn, New York on Friday May 6, 2011, and again on Friday July 1, 2011

A significant reward is available for a tip that breaks the case. Anyone with information is asked to call the FBI immediately at 212-384-1000. Tipsters may remain anonymous.
