Humble Bank Robber Wanted by FBI
Humble police and the FBI are looking for a serial bank robber who has hit multiple banks in the Humble area.
Humble, TX -- A serial bank robber is on the loose in Montgomery County and Northern Harris County. The FBI is looking a white male with a slim build who appears to be in his mid twenties to thirties.
The man is allegedly responsible for four bank robberies in June. His MO is to pass the teller a note saying if he doesn't get money he'll start shooting. Since none of the robberies have been violent, the FBI doesn't know if he actually has a gun.
