Alleged Serial Bank Robber Sought By Authorities

Lower Moreland Township police and the Federal Bureau of Investigation are asking for the public's help in locating and apprehending an alleged serial bank robber who robbed a Huntingdon Valley Wells Fargo branch on Wednesday morning. 

In a press release, the FBI said that the branch, at 2560 Huntingdon Pike, Huntingdon Valley, was robbed at 9:32 a.m. 

"The subject entered the bank and made a verbal demand to a teller," the FBI said. "After obtaining an undisclosed amount of cash, the subject fled the area of the bank on foot, heading west on Fetters Mill Road."

According to the FBI, the subject is described as a light-complected black male, approximately 5 feet, 6 inches to 5 feet, 11 inches tall, with a medium build; he wore a gray hooded sweatshirt with the word “NIKE” and the “swoosh” logo in black across the front, black sweatpants, black gloves, and a white mask or scarf across his face.

The FBI and police believe this same subject is responsible for the armed robberies of a Sovereign Bank branch in Cheltenham Township on June 13 and May 28, a Wells Fargo Bank branch in Northeast Philadelphia on May 23, and a PNC Bank branch in Philadelphia’s Mayfair section on May 15.

This subject is considered armed and dangerous.
