HARTFORD, Conn. — The FBI is offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of a man suspected of carrying out nearly a dozen bank robberies.
The robberies have taken place along the Interstate 91 corridor in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont.
The FBI said the man, dubbed the "Route 91 Bandit", is believed to be between 5-foot-6 and 5-foot-8 tall, with blue eyes and light hair.
He has threatened to use a gun and is considered armed and dangerous. The robberies span from Sept. 9 until Jan. 27. In Connecticut, he's hit areas in Enfield, East Windsor, Somers and Avon.
Officials said in at least six of the robberies, he's attempted to enter the vault.
Anyone with information on these robberies or this subject is asked to call the FBI at 1-857-386-2000 or go to tips.fbi.gov. Tipsters can remain anonymous.
