Suspected serial bank robber strikes again

On Monday, January 6, the serial bank robber known as the “Brim Beanie Bandit” is alleged to have robbed again, making this his fifth robbed bank in less than a month, according to the FBI’s Boston Division.

The South Shore Savings Bank at 1538 Turnpike Street in Stoughton was robbed at approximately 9:34 a.m. As seen in the surveillance photo at left, he is wearing a black brim beanie cap, black jacket, and dark pants with black gloves.

The serial robber entered the bank, passed a note to the teller demanding money, exited the bank, and fled on foot in an unknown direction. A weapon was not seen during the commission of this robbery, but the suspect is considered armed and dangerous.

The alleged serial robber had previously robbed the same South Shore Savings location on December 13, in addition to robberies in Quincy, Needham, and Braintree and an attempted robbery in Dorchester.

The FBI is offering a reward for information leading directly to the arrest and charging of the robber. Anyone with information regarding the robbery should call the FBI’s Boston Division at 617-742-5533 or the Stoughton Police Department at 781-344-2424.
