Help Identify The "Mac 7" Bank Robber

The Federal Bureau of Investigation needs the public's assistance in identifying the "Mac 7" Serial Bank Robber who is believed to have robbed at least seven banks in the Macomb County area.

On Monday, April 7, 2008, at approximately 11:45 am, LaSalle Bank was robbed by a lone black male. Over the following months, the unknown black male has robbed at least six additional banks. In each robbery, the suspect wore a dark colored baseball cap to attempt to hide his face. The suspect used a demand note in each robbery with the implication that he was armed. The suspect is described as follows: a black male, in his early to mid 20s, approximately 6'0" to 6'3" tall, and 170 to 190 pounds. The suspect currently has a goatee.

The following banks were robbed by the "Mac 7" Bank Robber:
