A serial bank robber the FBI is calling the “Golden Years Bandit,” is believed to be responsible for heists in San Gabriel, Rosemead and Alhambra, officials said Friday.
The robberies believed connected to the bandit all occurred along Valley Boulevard.
They include a June 26 robbery at an East West Bank, 140 W. Valley Boulevard in San Gabriel;  a March 17 robbery at a Bank of America at 8856 E. Valley Boulevard in Rosemead ; and a Jan. 23 robbery at a Bank of America at 444 E. Valley Boulevard in Rosemead, FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller said in a written statement.
In the most recent crime, “the bandit ordered the victim teller to ‘not say a word,’ and demanded cash in denominations of 100s, 50s and 20s,” Eimiller said.
“He further threatened that if the teller did not comply, someone would get hurt,” she said.
The robber motioned as if he had a weapon in his waistband, though none was seen, claimed to have a partner working with him.
He used similar tactics in his other two robberies, Eimiller said.
The bandit is described as a white male with a large build in his fifties or sixties, with gray hair and a mustache.
In the most recent heist, he wore blue jeans, a denim jacket, a blue shirt and a green hat, officials said.
Authorities believe he has used an older-model, beige van as a getaway car.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the FBI at 888-226-8443 or their local police department.
