The guy suspected of six separate bank robberies in Arlington this summer might be getting a bit sloppy.
Arlington Police have released new surveillance images of the man, whose face can — for the first time — clearly be seen despite a low-slung cap and a pair of stylish sunglasses resting on the bridge of his nose.
The images were taken during a robbery yesterday afternoon at the BB&T Bank at 3001 N. Washington Boulevard in Clarendon. It’s the second time the man is suspected of robbing that particular branch, and the fourth time he’s suspected of robbing a BB&T location.
Here’s what police had to say about the crime, in a press release.
The Arlington County Police Department’s Homicide/Robbery Unit is seeking the public’s help to identify a man who robbed an Arlington bank yesterday afternoon. This suspect related to five other bank robberies that have occurred in the past three months in Arlington County.
The suspect entered the BB&T Bank in the 3000 block of Washington Blvd at approximately 2:15 p.m. on Tuesday, August 17, 2011. He announced a bank robbery and demanded money. After receiving cash, the suspect fled on foot.
The suspect is described as a white male with brown hair, approximately 50 years old and 5’9” with a thin build. At the time of the robbery he wore a gray t-shirt, khaki pants, brown belt, a light colored hat and sunglasses.
Anyone who has information about this robbery or the identity of the suspect is asked to call the Arlington County Police Department Tip Line at 703 228-4242, or Detective Donald Fortunato at (703) 228-4197. Det. Fortunato can also be reached by email at dfortunato@arlingtonva.us.

Nope. It is Brian Johnson from AC/DC.
Nope, Joe Pesci
You’re all wrong. It’s Vern

Hey – I know that guy – he told me his name was Jack Ulation – oh, sorry – wrong thread. . .
C’mon ACPD…get ‘em!
Hey! That guy is on Jersey Shore!
Poll: Does describing the suspect as having “a thin build” reflect the person in the photographs?
Maybe. He could have middle aged spread on top of a thin build. For example, his shoulders don’t look particularly big.
I think to the cops he appears to have a thin build because he hasn’t been with them at the donut shop. (Or, as someone else pointed out, the cupcake shop – being Arlington.)
Side note – the departure of Dunkin’ Donuts from Wilson Boulevard – now *that* was a crime.
Did he threaten to throw his iphone at them?
Maybe he has a bank robbery app
Or the police scanner app
+1 Best comment Ive read all day
The middle one looks like his water balloon may have burst prematurely.
James, that should be iPhone.
Two different shirts?
You think the guy wears the same shirt everyday? The pictures are from different banks.
That’s not what the article implies.
You are right. I just noticed the different colors, and the stretches in the neck. Good candidate for that Hanes “bacon neck” commercial with Jordan.
No, the middle photo was in a darker area in the bank so it just looks more blue. It’s all the same.
In the pic on the right, the tee has a pocket. There’s no pocket on the tee in the middle pic.
I think there is a pocket on the other side in the middle pic, just harder to see. One of the photos is flipped.
Nah datz jus his luckee bank robbn shirt!
I gotz to git me one!
he thought he didn’t look fabulous enough … so he changed shirts
Nice rack

You would think with all the bank robbing he’d be able to afford some new t shirts.
You would think after robbing banks all summer he could afford some nicer clothes.
Uncle Leo – Hello!
It’s the actor who played Mike Damone in Fast Times.
When you rob a bank, always play Led Zepplin IV on your iPod.
Or Kashmir.
Side II of Led Zepplin IV.
Damone said side 1
I stand corrected….

Kashmir is not on that album. That has always troubled me about that recommendation in conjunction with the subsequent scene with Kashmir on the tape deck. Okay, back to having some food and learning about Cuba.
Songfacts says it was due to being unable to acquire the rights to any song on Led IV, but somehow Kashmir was available.
I thought it was intentional to demonstrate the character’s lack of understanding of music, which would have fit in to his overall lack of experience persona.
You guys are very funny. Good work.

Move along, folks, we found the guy who’s been robbing Arlington County!
well played
Congratulations! My first spit up laugh of the day!
oooo, papi. i’m getting dismal swamp ass thinking about him.
Charles Krauthammer?
This sounds far fetched, but can they do some sort of triangulation cell phone location search thing to identify what active cell phones were at that location during the appropriate time frame?
That’s only on “Batman”.
Funny, that type of sigint is how they implicated the 4 Hezbollah suspects in the assassination of Hariri…yes this is very possible but alas, this case is beneath the notice of Ft. Meade. :p
Playing Devil’s advocate here, but Lebanon has arrested employees in the telecom sector who were spying/working for the Mossad. That sector, being as primitive as it is, could easily be rigged and manipulated to implicate anybody. As much as I hate them, I still find it difficult, albeit convenient, to believe Hezbollah was involved in Hariri’s assassination.
As for our pictured hero, I wonder where is he today? Must be a very slow news day in Arlington without him striking…
How very Law & Order/CSI of you!
I work for a cell phone company. Short answer – No. Long answer – Nope.
It looks like he escaped from Del Boca Vista. Maybe he’s the guy that gave Jerry the pen that can write in space.
I think he also looks like Moe Syzlak, the bartender onThe Simpsons.
In all seriousness, since you can see his eyes, that is a great picture. Now how about Arlington start spreading the word? Get the photo out to every civic association mailing list, hang it up on telephone polls, post it in banks and post offices and drugstore windows, put it up on Arlington TV (“Have you seen this guy?”) and public school TV. I’m sick of this.
