CRIME STOPPERS

TYPE OF CRIME: Bank Robbery

In the month of May, two bank robberies occurred and were committed by the same person. One occurred at the Wells Fargo Bank located on Monterey Road in Morgan Hill and the other at another Wells Fargo Bank in San Jose off Branham Lane. The suspect entered the bank and approached the teller and demanded money. The suspect put the money in an envelope and exited the bank. The suspect stated that he had a gun, but a gun was not seen.

The suspect is described as an Asian male in his 30’s, 5’7” to 5’9”, thin build, with black hair and brown eyes.

CRIME STOPPERS is a cooperative effort between the local media, San Jose Police Department, and a citizen Board of Directors. Once a week an unsolved police case is presented to the public. Citizens are urged to call 947-STOP if they have information on any other serious crime and remain anonymous. Rewards of up to $1,000 are offered for information leading to an arrest. You do not give your name; you are given a code number.
