Alexandria Police Release Security Photo of ATM Robbery Suspect
Over the weekend, Alexandria police responded to three robbery attempts at bank ATMs. Detectives have reviewed security tape and are now releasing a still from the video which shows the suspect police believe is responsible for these offenses.
The suspect is described as a white male with reddish hair. He is in his late 20s to early 30s, 5'7" to 5'11" tall with a stocky build. He was wearing jeans, a baseball cap, and a long coat. He fled in a light blue 1992 Nissan Maxima with Virginia license plates, YWJ-5315, which was reported stolen on December 4 in Prince William County.
In the Alexandria cases, the suspect approached the victim as the victim was making an ATM transaction. The suspect, armed with a sharp instrument, demanded money from the victims but did not obtain any. The three cases are:
