'Geezer Bandit' strikes another Calif. bank

MORRO BAY, Calif.

Federal agents said the suspect robbed a bank in Morro Bay in San Luis Obispo County Friday afternoon. Authorities said the robber pointed a revolver at two tellers at a Heritage Oaks Bank branch, threatened them and demanded money. The suspect left with an undisclosed amount.

The "/*Geezer Bandit*/" is believed to be responsible for 13 other bank robberies since 2009.

He is described as Caucasian, between 60 and 70 years old, about 190 pounds and approximately 6-feet tall.

The FBI has considered that the man's elderly features could be a disguise, after some witness reports that he was wearing a mask.

A $20,000 reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction in this case.

Anyone with information is urged to call FBI at (858) 565-1255.
