HOUSTON — Two Chase banks were robbed early last week, but the FBI Houston Bank Robbery Task Forces said the two were not believed to be related.
In the first case, a man robbed the Chase Bank at 1490 Eldridge Parkway on Tuesday.
Later that evening, the Chase Bank at 6015 Hillcroft was robbed.
In the first robbery, at approximately 2:40 p.m., a lone black male entered the bank and approached the teller counter. He displayed a note announcing that he was robbing the bank and that he was carrying a pistol. The teller handed over some cash, and the man fled the bank. He was seeing leaving the area in an older model white Dodge Durango SUV.
Witnesses describe the robber as a black male, 20-25 years old, 5’06”-5’07” tall, thin build, with a dark complexion. He was wearing a black baseball cap, black tee shirt with red lettering, and black pants.
In the second case, at approximately 5:30 p.m., a lone black male entered the bank and waited in the teller line. When called up to a window, he threw a paper bag onto the teller counter and displayed a Tech Nine semi-automatic pistol. It is not known if he escaped on foot or in a vehicle.
Witnesses describe him as a black male, 45-50 years old, 6’04”to 6’05” tall, 230 pounds, stocky build, wearing a khaki hat, khaki shirt, jeans, and white framed sunglasses.
Crime Stoppers is offering up to $5,000.00 for information leading to the charging and arrest of this robber, or any felony suspect.
