Photo Released in Second Comerica Bank Robbery

The FBI Bank Robbery Task Force needs your help in identifying the man who robbed the Comerica Bank located at 2337 West Holcombe in Houston, Texas, earlier today. It was the second robbery of a Comerica Bank location in Houston today. The two robberies do not appear to be related at this time.

At approximately 1:05 p.m., the man entered the bank and approached a teller. He initially pretended to conduct legitimate bank business, then handed the teller a note which demanded money and threatened he had gun. The robbery verbally repeated the demand and threatened to pull out a weapon. No weapon was observed by the teller. The teller provided the robber with some cash. No one was physically hurt during the robbery.

The bank robber is described as a black male, 20-25, 5’8”-5’9” tall, with an average build, light complexion, and clean shaven. He wore a black business suit, white shirt, black tie, black sunglasses, and a Rice University baseball cap.

Crime Stoppers of Houston is offering up to $5,000 for information leading to the charging and arrest of this robber, or any felony suspect. If you have information about this crime, please call the Crime Stoppers Tip Line at 713-222-TIPS (8477), or the Houston office of the FBI at 713-693-5000.
