FBI offers $10K reward for information leading to arrest of serial Culver's robber
Police say the man at large has been involved in a series of commercial robberies, including four at Culver's locations and one at a Janesville Best Buy.
In each incident at Culver's, the suspect drove up to the restaurant's drive-thru window and handed a note to the cashier demanding money and implying that he was armed with a weapon. Police say he targeted restaurants in Lake Mills, Janesville, Mequon and Beloit.
"The importance of taking someone like this into custody is very high because, obviously, he's not stopping on his own," Mequon Police Captain John Hoell said. "It's the people that are behind those registers, behind the counters, that are also victims and put their lives in danger because of something like this. It's very important that he gets taken into custody because you don't know where he's at in his life and what measures he'll go to gain that money, for whatever reasons are behind that."
The suspect is described as a white male, 6'5", 300 pounds, with brown hair and a goatee, driving a red, four-door Jeep Wrangler with no license plates.
Police say he is considered armed and dangerous.
"Unfortunately, nobody knows what this person is capable of, and that's the scary part. Desperate people at desperate times, they do desperate things, and we don't want him to do something that puts the situation even worse," Hoell said.
"If it's the FBI, it's your local sheriff's department, your local police department, let them know that you recognize this person, you know who this person is. The littlest information might be the biggest clue that we need to solve this. We just need that one person to end this for a lot of people."
Anyone with information is asked to call the FBI at 414-276-4684 or dial 911.
