Gun-Toting Grandpa is a Serial Bank Robber

An elderly man has successfully robbed another bank in California... and sources say it's his tenth run in the area since August. The FBI has dubbed him the 'geezer bandit', but don't let the name fool you. On Monday afternoon the grandpa held up a branch of US Bank in Poway, where he handed a demand note to the teller and pointed a small handgun at her. The FBI said in its report that the suspect threatened to use the weapon if not given the money.


The “geezer bandit” is described as being between 60 and 70 years of age, 6’0” tall and weighing approximately 190 lbs... although if you look at the picture provided by the FBI, we'd guess he barely makes 160.
