of multiple victims. The suspect fraudulently withdrew funds from
various bank accounts, in excess of $100,000. The crimes have taken
place in the Topanga and Van Nuys area, and bank branches outside
the city limits.

The suspect is described
as a male White, 70-80 years old with grey/white hair. He stands 5
foot 9 to 5 foot 11 inches tall and weighs approximately 190
pounds. The suspect has been seen in a gold BMW SUV.

Anyone with information about these incidents, or the identity of
the suspect, is asked to
call Detective Ward, Valley Financial Section, at (818) 374-9624,
or (818) 374-9420.
During non-business hours or on the weekends, calls should be
directed to 1-877-LAPD-24-7
(877-527-3247). Anyone wishing to remain anonymous should call

messages should begin with the letters “LAPD.” Tipsters may also go
