Bank Robber On [Bike] Sought In Longmont
August 31st, 2005 by Tim GrahlPolice and federal agents are looking for a safety-conscious bank robber on a budget in Longmont.
According to police, the man threatens tellers with a knife instead of a gun and makes his getaway on a bicycle instead of in a vehicle. He also wears his bicycle helmet into the bank.
The same man is believed responsible for two robberies at the Commercial Federal Bank on Fifth Avenue — the latest robbery happening Monday. The bank was also robbed on Aug. 3 and authorities believe the same man is responsible for that robbery.

The funny thing, the description given in the paper matches me, and my commute takes me right in front of that bank. I’m a little older than 35 but look youngish, I have black hair, I’m 5′9″, I sometimes ride a crappy old bike and I own an old Bell helmet. Several people have asked me (jokingly, I hope) if I’m the biking bank robber. I’m skinnier than the guy in the video so I think I’m off the hook.
Haha, better watch yourself. Next time you ride by the cops will probably tackle you.
