SALT LAKE CITY — The FBI Salt Lake City Division's Safe Streets Task Force, Salt Lake City Police Department, and Cottonwood Heights Police Department, are seeking the public's help to identify a serial bank robber, known as the "Bundled Up Bandit", who is alleged to have robbed three Utah banks in the past month.
On the morning of Oct 1, a robber walked into Bank of the West in Cottonwood Heights. He matches the description of the person who robbed Zions Bank in Salt Lake City on Sept 20 and Oct 9.
In all three bank robberies the subject has worn a hooded sweatshirt pulled up over a cap, sunglasses, and blue gloves. During each robbery he has presented a threatening note and left with the cash. No one has been injured. He is described as a white male, mid 20s to early 30s, 5'7" to 5'11", approximately 170 pounds, with a thin build.
FBI Special Agent in Charge David J. Johnson has announced a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to the bank robber's arrest and conviction. The public is advised to not approach the bank robber and phone in tips to the FBI Salt Lake City Division at (801) 579-1400, or e-mail tips to saltlakecity@ic.fbi.gov.
