Good-Looking Bandit Still on the Loose

FRANKFORT, IL — Hearts are a-flutter on social media after Frankfort police released a surveillance image of a man who robbed a local bank Tuesday.

The man — who police say implied that he had a weapon during the robbery at US Bank — is described as a white male, 30-40 years old, approximately 6 feet tall with a medium build, wearing a dark gray long-sleeved sweatshirt, blue jeans and sunglasses on top of his head. The image shows a smooth-skinned man with apparently chiseled features, and dark hair possibly slicked back.

And he happens to look an awful lot like at least one celebrity, Patch readers observed.

"They were robbed by Christian Bale!" one commenter remarked, noting the man's similarity to the "Batman" star.

"That's Matthew McConaughey!" joked one.

"Alright alright alright" chimed in another.

Police searched for the fresh-faced suspect Tuesday, but to no avail. No one was injured in the robbery, and a small amount of cash was taken. The man fled the scene on foot and headed westbound. Police have not located him.

The case has been turned over to the FBI Chicago Field Office, Frankfort police said Wednesday. Anyone with information should call 312-421-6700.
