The FBI Rocky Mountain Safe Streets Task Force, along with the Denver and Greenwood Village Police Departments, need the public’s help identifying three individuals who independently robbed three banks earlier this year. Although the images of these suspects are clear, none of these individuals have been positively identified.
The FBI Denver Division has referred to them as the “One-hit Wonders” because we have linked each suspect to one bank robbery, and we are wondering who these individuals are. Hence, we are requesting assistance publicizing the subjects’ photographs with the goal of generating information that results in identifying the subjects.
“We know that mobilizing the general public is a powerful crime-fighting tool,” said FBI Denver Special Agent in Charge Mark Michalek. “In fact, we have a recent federal sentencing in which we identified the so-called Penguin Bandit after a tip came in from the public. Someone out there will recognize these suspects if we can get the images in front of enough eyes.”
The suspects are believed to be responsible for the following bank robberies:
- Suspect 1: January 2 at approx. 3:15 p.m. CrossFirst Bank Denver, 4582 South Ulster St., Denver
- Suspect 2: January 3 at approx. 5:35 p.m., ENT Credit Union, 1499 Wyncoop St., Denver
- Suspect 3: January 14 at approx. 11:25 a.m., Bank of America, 5117 S. Yosemite St., Greenwood Village
A photograph of Suspect 1 is included in the CrimeStoppers poster. No written description was provided.
Suspect 2 is described as a white male, 50 to 60 years old, with a large build, who wore glasses during the bank robbery.
Suspect 3 is described as a white female, approximately 5’5” tall, 40-50 years old, wearing a camouflage trapper hat, prescription glasses, a blue coat, and black gloves. The suspect walked with a limp.
Please be on the lookout for anyone matching the above descriptions. Be aware of anyone similar who might have recently changed their spending habits or discussed coming into money suddenly.
Bank robbery is punishable by up to 20 years in prison for each federal offense, and sentences can increase if a dangerous weapon is used in the commission of the crime.
Anyone with information about one of these robberies or the identity of a One-hit Wonder suspect is asked to contact the Denver Police, Greenwood Village Police, FBI, or Metro Denver CrimeStoppers.
