As of right now, its a case of 3-2-1.
Three bank robberies. Two cities. One robber?
Look at these pictures. These were taken from June 15 and June 27 at Arvest banks in Fayetteville. The man facing the camera allegedly robbed both of these banks.
Now look at these pictures. They were taken Tuesday at a First National bank in Fort Smith. See a resembelence?
Police think they do, too. Right now police believe that these three robberies may be connected. Theyre looking at the robbers similarities, manarisms, and physical likenesses as well.
Fayetteville police says there is a strong liklihood its the same robber.
He is described as an Hispanic man, 58 to 510 about 200 pounds.
The two cities police departments are working together to investigate the latest robbery.
