March 6, 2007

FORT SMITH, Ark. (Crime Library ) —  Authorities are seeking an unknown man who has brazenly robbed four Arkansas banks over the past two months.  Despite releasing images of the suspect taken from three of the four banks' surveillance cameras, investigators have been unable to identify the man, who likes to sport dark sunglasses and a facsimile of an FBI windbreaker during his outings.

In a move that is now becoming more and more popular with both law enforcement and families of missing loved ones, investigators are turning to MySpace for help finding the suspect, whom Crime Library has nicknamed the "Geezer Gangster," due to his purported age and appearance.

The most recent robbery occurred on February 22, when the suspect robbed the US Bank in Alma.  Police were alerted to the robbery at 4:50 p.m.  The man showed the teller a small black handgun and demanded she fill a purple plastic bag with the money.  He was in and out in less than two minutes.

Authorities do not know how the Geezer Gangster flees the scene.  No witnesses have come forward to report seeing him get into a vehicle, and investigators will not comment on the possibility that he could be using a mobility scooter or a wheelchair in his daring escapes.
