On Thursday, March 4, 2010 at 9:50 am, a lone male suspect entered the Bank of America located at 401 M Street, SW, and attempted to rob the bank.  That same day at 1:25 pm, the suspect entered the BB&T Bank located at <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /?>1801 Adams Mill Road, NW and attempted to rob that bank as well. This same individual also is believed to be responsible for the February 26, 2010 robbery of the Citibank located at 1000 Vermont Avenue, NW.

The suspect in each of these cases is described as a dark complexioned black male believed to be in his late 30s to mid 40s, approximately 6’0” - 6’4” in height with a medium build, a thin face, short cropped black hair, and a mustache, wearing a black coat, a black shirt, a black skull cap with red trim, and large-frame dark sunglasses.
