The FBI is looking for three men who ripped off a PNC Bank in Southeast Washington in September, first targeting the tellers’ cash drawers and then snagging money from a teller who was loading an automated teller machine.
According to the FBI, the first suspect, an unshaven black man with stocky build, bulging stomach and about 5 feet 10 inches tall, walked into the bank around 1:30 p.m. Sept. 18 and then left after taking a look around.
He returned a few minutes later with a bald black male who has a thin build, is between 5-feet-6 and 5-feet-11 and was wearing long pants and sneakers. The second suspect stood as a lookout at the door while the first man ordered the bank manager behind the teller line.
At the same time, a bank teller was loading cash into an ATM. The first suspect threatened to kill the ATM-loading teller as the teller turned the cash over to the robber.
Both men then fled the bank with an undisclosed amount of cash and hopped into a gray or silver compact car with District license plates. The driver was a black male, between 28 and 30 years old. He was bald and had a light complexion.
None of the men displayed a weapon at any point, the FBI said.
Anyone with information should contact the FBI Washington Field Office at 202-278-2000. For additional information on other bank robberies in the area visit bankbandits.org.
