It’s A Wonder This Gent Got To 17 (Banks, That Is)

If something’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right. Okay, so maybe that doesn’t really apply to robbing banks. But still, the same sunglasses? Every time? As reported by The Belleville News-Democrat:

A serial bank robber responsible for more than a dozen bank robberies spanning seven states, including two in the metro-east, is now behind bars, according to FBI officials.

The robber dubbed the “Ray Bandit” for his tendency to wear Ray Ban-type sunglasses was identified as Jeremy Evans of Carol Stream in DuPage County.

Tendency?

The description of the “Ray Bandit” in all these robberies was similar: a white male, approximately 5-foot-8 to 6-foot tall, heavyset, wearing disguises ranging from a beard, either black or blond hair usually covered with a hat of some type, a plaid shirt and Ray Ban-type sunglasses.

So the dude changed all these other things, but wore the same shades each time? Brilliant! You can read more (a lot) here.
