    LBPD and the FBI have asked for the public's help in identifying and locating this suspect.

    Police say that on January 3, he entered the California Bank & Trust branch at 444 W. Ocean Blvd. at 11:11 a.m., handed a teller a threatening note and left with a substantial amount of cash. Police believe he fled in a black Lincoln Navigator driven south by an as yet unidentified person.

    In all cases, he fled with a significant amount of money.

    Witnesses have previously described him as an African-American male, balding, 5'8" to 5'10", 190-200 lbs. with a thick mustache.

    Anyone with information is urged to call LBPD Robbery Detective Jeff Liberman at (562) 570-7464 or the LB FBI at (562) 432-6951.
