Charlotte, N.C. – The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department is on high alert following two robberies that occurred on Tuesday, October 29th, in our beloved city. The detectives are hot on the trail, looking to identify the suspects involved in these unsettling incidents.
The first robbery took place at the Truist Bank, located at 2336 Freedom Drive in West Charlotte, shortly after 9:30 a.m. According to police reports, a man dressed in dark clothing strutted into the bank, calmly waiting for his turn to chat with a teller. But what happened next was anything but ordinary.
Instead of shouting or causing a scene, the robber used a thoughtful tactic: he passed a note to the teller that simply stated, “Give me the money or else.” Detective Jacqueline Clyburn from the CMPD Crime Stoppers explained that this subtle approach helps to minimize attention, making it easier for the robber to make a quick getaway. “It can be discrete,” she explained, showcasing a level of understanding of the psychology behind this crime.
Surveillance footage captured the man’s exit after he left with the cash in hand. Detective Clyburn is fairly confident they will track him down soon, despite his attempt to conceal his identity during the robbery. “I’m not worried because I think the features are distinctive and the camera system is quality,” she stated, reassuring the public.
The plot thickens, as the same suspect is also believed to be behind another robbery that took place at a Fifth Third Bank on Reddman Road the previous day. This indicates a troubling trend, and police are keen to catch this individual before he strikes again. During the Truist robbery, he was notably dressed in black clothing and donned a pair of striking black and yellow Jordan shoes.
