'Bushy Brows Bandit' arrested in connection with Denver area bank robberies

The FBI Rocky Mountain Safe Streets Task Force said the man is responsible for robberies dating back to Jan. 18.

DENVER — A man wanted in a string of recent bank robberies across metro Denver was arrested Thursday, the FBI Rocky Mountain Safe Streets Task Force said in a release.

Dubbed the "Bushy Brows Bandit" for his thick eyebrows, the man pictured below is believed to be responsible for robberies dating back to Jan. 18. 

The FBI said in a previous release that in each case, the robber entered the bank and presented a demand note to the teller. He always threatened to have a weapon, the release said, but no weapons were ever seen. 

The suspected robber's actual name has not been released. 

A total of $7,000 in reward money was being offered for information that led to a conviction in the case. It's not clear how the suspect was caught. The FBI only said the arrest followed an "extensive investigation" and was "without incident."
