He’s on the run after robbing two banks in 20 minutes. The FBI knows his name but can’t find him.
It’s been three days since a Miami man successfully robbed two Miami-Dade banks and made off with the cash. The FBI hasn’t been able to find him, but now they know his name.
On Thursday, the FBI said David Veras, 39, was the man who robbed a Bank of America at 2655 NW 54th St., and a Chase Bank at 801 SW 27th Ave. on Monday within 20 minutes of each other.
In both robberies, he walked in, demanded cash from the teller and then ran away once they handed it over, the FBI said.
How much money was taken is unknown, but there were no injuries at either bank.
The FBI is working with Miami-Dade and Miami police to find Veras.
Veras has an extensive record of being arrested for drug possession, stalking, loitering, battery and theft.
Anyone with information is asked to call the FBI at 754-703-2000 or Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS (8477).
