FBI offers reward for Fall River bank robber

The FBI is offering a monetary reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to the identification, arrest, and prosecution of the “Faceless” Bandit.

The Faceless Bandit is responsible for at least three armed robberies in Fall River:

September 19, 2017, Santander Bank, 430 William Canning Blvd., Fall River, Massachusetts 02721, at 4:15 PM

October 2, 2017, Webster Bank, 1450 Plymouth Ave., Fall River, Massachusetts 02721, at 1:02 PM

October 23, 2017, Santander Bank, 430 William Canning Blvd., Fall River, Massachusetts 02721, at 4:33 PM

• During all three robberies, the Faceless Bandit was completely masked. He wore a black sweatshirt with a large hood and covered his face with black sunglasses, dark ski masks or bandanas. He is believed to be a left-handed male, and wears gloves, which are sometimes mismatched. In each robbery, the suspect verbally threatened and showed a weapon while demanding cash before fleeing on foot.
• Weapon Used: During his September 19 and October 23 robberies at Santander Bank, which he robbed twice, the suspect revealed a black semi-automatic handgun. On his October 2 robbery, he brandished a black semi-automatic handgun and drew a silver revolver from his waistband before threatening to shoot the teller
