Campbell Police Ask for Help Identifying Serial Bank Robber

The suspect has been linked to six robberies in four South Bay cities including Campbell.

 

The suspect in two Campbell bank robberies has now been linked to four others in the South Bay and Campbell Police is looking for the public's help in identifying him.

A white male in his 30s, approximately 5'8'' to 5'10'' tall with a stocky build and a goatee or full five o-clock shadow was seen robbing the following banks:

  • Aug. 24: Bank of the West in Campbell
  • Sept. 5: US Bank in Campbell
  • Sept. 10: Wells Fargo in Sunnyvale
  • Sept. 18: Wells Fargo in San Jose
  • Sept. 25: Chase Bank in Los Gatos
  • Oct. 16: Bank of America in Sunnyvale 

"All the police departments have been working together but want to put it out to the public," said Campbell Police Sgt. Gary Berg. "Since the most recent pictures obtained in Sunnyvale were good ones, we're hoping someone would recognize him."

Campbell Police have been working with the Los Gatos Police Department, San Jose Police Department and Sunnyvale Department of Public Safety after video surveillance showed the same suspect in each of the six robberies. 

"No weapon has been seen at any of the robberies," Berg said."We don’t have any information on vehicles associated with him but from bank surveillance video, very clear it’s the same suspect in all robberies."

Anyone with information regarding the suspect or any of the bank robberies is asked to contact the Campbell Police Department Investigations Unit at 408-871-5190. Those wishing to remain anonymous can also contact the Silicon Valley Crime Stoppers at 408-947-STOP (7867).

I am impressed with CalTrans ability to do the cleanup, but the problem of homelessness does not goRead More away. Until we find a way to help these people in need, the camps will just move to another location, and everything will start all over again. The homeless need help - whether they want it or not. It's time to get that ball rolling.

Who is Tony Faber? Here is some history from a family member. My name is Karen Hunt and myRead More grandfather is and was Albert Jacob Faber. He owned and ran that bike shop up until his death in 1975. Subsequent to grandpa's death the house/building became the property of my grandmother, Lucille Faber. Upon her death, the property went to my mother, Jackie Faber-Cornick. In 1978, the business, not the building was sold to Alex Lariviere and he has conducted business since. The building was never sold and belongs to my mom, Jackie Cornick. It was her great-grandparents home back in the 1920's. We are shocked and saddened by this tremendous loss. At this time, we are trying to decide the fate of that beloved building. We are currently awaiting forensics tests, engineering and structural reports, and working with the City to keep it safe and prevent it from being vandalized and becoming a blight. I'm happy to answer any questions you might have about the history of Faber's Cyclery. My grandfather was a man of character and integrity. Sadly, neither of his two sons became involved in the business. With that said, anybody claiming to be a Faber or son of Albert Jacob, is just misrepresenting the truth. Thank you for sharing your story and memories! Very truly yours, Karen Hunt Great grandaughter of the owner of the Original Fabers Cyclery.
