“Frugal Felon” Isn’t Greedy

Turns Down Extra Cash During Bank Heist

March 5, 2010 - The FBI Houston Bank Robbery Task Force is seeking the public’s assistance in identifying the “Frugal Felon,” a white male who robbed the First Convenience Bank within the Kroger grocery store at 12620 Woodforest at about noon today.

The man of few words entered the banking area within the grocery store, approached the teller, and pushed a note demanding cash across the counter. The teller placed some cash on top of the note, and when she reached down to grab some additional cash, “Frugal Felon” told her, “No, that’s enough.” He then grabbed the cash and the note and was seen exiting the store on foot.

Witnesses describe “Frugal Felon” as a white male, late 20’s to early 30’s, 6’00” tall, 200 pounds, light complexion, clean shaven. He was wearing a dark blue mechanic’s coverall, dark shoes, sunglasses, and a maroon baseball cap with a white logo. He had a tattoo of unknown design on his right forearm.

Crime Stoppers is offering up to $5,000.00 for information leading to the charging and arrest of “Frugal Felon” or any felony suspect. If you recognize this man, or have information about this case, call the Crime Stoppers Tip Line at 713-222-TIPS (8477).
