FBI officials are seeking a nattily-dressed man who may be living in Virginia and traveling to New York to rob banks. Authorities have dubbed the suspect the “Dapper Bandit” because he typically wears a suit or sport coat during the bank heists. They say he is responsible for robbing 10 Manhattan banks since September. The FBI now believes the well-dressed bandit is 52-year-old Dana Maurice Connor, an ex-con.
Federal authorities are searching for Connor and are asking the public for information that can lead to his arrest.

Connor is 5-foot-7, weighs 210 pounds and has brown eyes and black hair. Connor has a “Moe Love” tattoo on his chest, and sometimes is referred to as Maurice.
He should be considered armed and dangerous, said FBI officials, who are offering a reward for information leading to his arrest.
Anyone with information is asked to call the FBI immediately at 212-384-1000. Tipsters may remain anonymous.
Since The Washington Examiner started its Crime & Punishment page in July 2008, readers’ tips have led directly to the arrest of at least 39 fugitives. At least seven were wanted on a charge of or had previously been convicted of homicide. In December, tipsters led U.S. marshals to a man wanted in a 1997 cold case slaying and two D.C. gang members wanted in a pair of killings in Northwest Washington.
