By adamg on Sun, 05/08/2016 - 10:31am

The FBI's Bank Robbery Task Force reports it's looking for a guy who walked into the TD Bank branch at 24 Winter St. late Thursday afternoon and told a teller he needed money and he needed it fast.

He's described as being medium height, with a medium build.

Orange Line service was briefly held when police searched the Downtown Crossing station for him.

He has the EWBroadway uniform on...

What's the over on him being a dbag from "the city on the hill."

Well, I'm guessing there could be only one bozo in that fly adidas jumpsuit...

Unless that adidas jump suit is the new fashion statement of Boston, this guy is half of the duo responsible for the robbery of Soodee on Newbury street earlier in the week.

You beat me to it. The Soodee video is still on the WCVB site. Hoping we can skip the Adidas fashion statement.

Did he need the money to pay his fare? is he more worried about getting caught by the FBI for Bank Robbery or getting caught by the Transit Police in the Ring of Steel for fare evasion..

Don't worry, he'll emerge from hiding when the shit runs out, just to get off of E. They always do if they're still alive.

Notice that his description doesn't mention his race, only his build. If this guy were of color, you can bet your money, he'd have been described as such.

In case anyone's looking for him: he appears white

Did you see the other bank-robbery post I put up today? That didn't mention the suspect's race, either (hint, he's not white).

I'm like Stephen Colbert of The Colbert Report and I don't see color, I'm really going to need that information if I'm going to be on the lookout for these bandits among us.

It doesn't mention race because you get to see a picture of the perp!

Amazing how that works.
