Oklahoma City police are asking for help tracking down a man they say tried to tap into someone else’s bank account near NW Expressway and North May Avenue, then bolted after a bank employee started asking questions. The suspect left behind what investigators describe as a fraudulent passport, which is now in police hands as evidence.
Police posted photos and case details
The images and a brief case description were posted by the Oklahoma City Police Department, which listed the investigation as case number 26-22055. According to the post, the suspect walked into the bank, presented a passport that investigators say was fraudulent, and tried to access a customer’s account before taking off. Still photos from surveillance video show the man inside the branch.
How to submit tips
Police are asking anyone who recognizes the man to contact Crime Stoppers at 405-235-7300 or send an anonymous tip online through Crime Stoppers. The program allows tipsters to remain anonymous and may offer rewards when information leads to charges or an arrest.
What investigators say happened inside the branch
Investigators say the suspect handed over a passport that appeared fraudulent while trying to get into another customer’s account. When a bank employee pressed him with questions, he left the documents behind and ran out of the building. Police say the passport is now part of the evidence in case 26-22055 and are urging anyone who knows who the man is to contact them and reference that case number.
