Chase and Bank of America were robbed one after another and the FBI was overwhelmed (Alberta Times) After 11 a.m. on Monday, a Hispanic man walked into a Chase Bank near 65th Place in Phoenix and asked employees to hand over cash. After receiving an unknown amount of cash, the robber fled westward on foot, seemingly calm. The police described the robber as thin, 20-21 years old, about 6.1 to 2 feet tall, with obvious freckles on his face. He was wearing a gray Aeropostale sweatshirt and a Hurley hat. He looked dirty and was not ruled out as homeless. At about 12:30 noon on Monday, a black man with a beard walked into the Bank of America on Center Street in Phoenix, demanded money from the teller, and took away an unknown amount of cash. The suspect is described as approximately 20-30 years old, 6 feet tall, 180 pounds, wearing a Zou Baba short-sleeved white T-shirt, blue jeans and sunglasses. Anyone with the above information is asked to contact the FBI Bank Robbery Task Force's Phoenix office at 602-279-5511 or go to www.BanditTrackerArizona.com. (This department is composed of elites from the Phoenix Police Department, Maricopa County Sheriff's Office and Mesa Police Department)
