Well Dressed Bandit hits 10th bank in San Diego area

The FBI in San Diego is asking the public for information about a bank robber with an apparent taste for nice clothing and luxury automobiles.

Dubbed the Well Dressed Bandit,' the robber has hit 10 banks and credit unions in San Diego County since May 2010. His latest job was Friday when he robbed a Chase Bank in the Sorrento Valley area of San Diego -- the third time he has robbed the same branch, according to authorities.

Witnesses reported seeing him leave in a Lexus or Mercedes. He prefers dark clothing and sometimes wears a cap to cover a balding or shaved head.

He is described as black, in his mid-30s, about 6-foot-2 and weighing 220 pounds.
