Wednesday morning, he struck again, pulling off his tenth bank robbery in Las Vegas Valley since September. Police say he’s even robbed one bank twice.

The bandit hit again Wednesday at the Washington Mutual branch on Maryland Parkway and Sahara. Police say he waited in line and fled with money. Metro and the FBI are desperate to catch this repeat robber.

“He’ll wait in line — he’ll wait until he approaches a teller, and he will either present a note or he will tell them that he wants the cash out of the drawer. And on some occasions, he’s even threatened that he may have a weapon,” said Metro Robbery Lt. Clint Nichols.

Lt. Nichols says the man has been linked to 10 bank robberies in the valley, including two in North Las Vegas. His string of crimes started in late September when he hit the Community Bank of Nevada near I-215 and Russell. The robber’s next heist was three days later at Nevada State Bank on Rancho near Craig.

In late October, he pulled off a job at a Wamu on Rainbow near Sahara. The so-called Cordial Crook returned two months later to the same bank to steal more money. In the latest theft, he got his money and told the teller, “Thank you and God bless you.”

Police fear he may not be this friendly next time, “What typically happens is they start to get comfortable with what they’re doing, and the level of violence will escalate.”

Detectives don’t know if this it’s a bad economy that’s driving the man to rip off so many banks and make off with so much money. They want this robber on the run, caught on camera every time, to be arrested, cuffed and locked up.

The man is described as a black male in his mid-20’s to mid-30’s. He is between 5 feet 10 inches and 6 feet 3 inches tall with a heavy build and bulging eyes. Police say he has a shaved head, a goatee, and walks with a limp.

Authorities say the same man is responsible for robbing the Washington Mutual on south Rainbow near Alta on October 28, 2008 and the US Bank on Charleston near Nellis on October 30, 2008.

He may be driving a light colored, four-door Chrysler. If you’ve seen him, call CrimeStoppers at 385-5555.

They think he may not be a local resident. Police have spread his photo around the valley and no one has called police. Last year, a serial bank robber used to fly into Las Vegas from Florida to commit his crimes. This one, police say, could be from out-of-state.

The suspects left the store with money, cigarettes and liquor. The suspects are described as two Hispanic males and one black male. Police are asking anyone with information to call their Robbery section at 828-3591 or CrimeStoppers at 385-5555.

Police say the suspect entered the retail store with a handgun and demanded money. The suspect wore a black tee-shirt with the wording  “All Access Granted” and drove away in a white or gray Chevrolet Impala style vehicle.

The suspect was armed with a knife, but took off without any money after the worker alerted the manager.

The suspect is described as a white male in his early 20’s. He was seen driving away in a gray sedan, possibly a Toyota Tercel.

The victim was hit and kicked until she couldn’t fight anymore.

The suspect is described as a black male, about 18-years-old, 5 feet 5 inches tall and 145 pounds.

Police say the suspect and three females took the robbery victim’s credit card and tried using it at the Walgreens on west Craig Road. When the card was declined they took off.

Anyone with information on who these suspects are can call Crime Stoppers at 385-5555.

The victim had recently left work and was waiting for a bus. The suspect is seen on video surveillance passing the victim on the stairwell, then coming back down.

As the suspect again meets up with the victim on the stairwell, he repeatedly punches her in the face and head. The victim falls to the ground and the suspect takes her purse and flees the area.

Metro Police is requesting assistance in identifying the suspect. He is described as a black male in his early 30’s, 6 foot 2 inches and about 220 pounds. He was wearing jean shorts, white shoes, a dark t-shirt and baseball hat.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Robbery Section at 828-3591. If you want to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 385-5555.

Police say they now have a name to go along with the face of a suspect bank robber. They are hoping the public can help find the suspect.

Leon Bouchard, 54-years-old, is wanted in connection with three different bank robberies. Police say Bouchard is responsible for the April 29th robbery of a bank in the 6000 block of West Tropicana. Police believe is also the same suspect that robbed a bank a few days prior in the 2500 block of Rainbow and a bank in the area of Sahara and Decatur in December.

Anyone with information on Bouchard’s whereabouts is asked to call Metro Robbery at 828-3591 or Crimestoppers at 385-5555.

The suspect then left the area in a dark grey, two-door, older model vehicle.

The man is also wanted in connection with an attempted robbery to a clothing store located near the 2500 block of east Desert Inn Road. That event occurred on April 9th, 2008.

The suspects then walked with the victim into the bank and forced her to withdraw all of her money. The men then ordered the victim to drive from the bank and drop them off at separate locations.

Police say the suspects are both Hispanic males in their 40’s. One is about 5′2″ and 165 lbs., has a dark complexion, heavy build and a small round scar on left side of neck. The second suspect is described as 5′7″-5′8″ and 160 lbs., has a light complexion, brown eyes, light brown hair and small sun spots on his face.
