Detectives Investigating Bank Robberies in Lorton and Springfield

Posted on by

Detectives from our Major Crimes Bureau are investigating two bank robberies that occurred shortly after 2 this afternoon. The first bank robbery occurred at the Bank of America located at 8096 Rolling Road in Springfield. The second bank robbery occurred at the Suntrust Bank located at 9400 Richmond Highway about 20 minutes later. During both robberies, the suspect implied a gun, demanded cash, and left the bank on foot. He was only able to obtain cash from the second bank. The suspect appeared to be the same in both robberies. The suspect is described as a black man in his 20s, 5’10”, thin to medium build, wearing a grey zip-up hoodie and dark pants.
