He allegedly acted alone and, for the past several months, robbed multiple banks in King County — including 15 in Seattle alone. His robbing spree started in January.

In addition to Robbery Unit detectives, he was also interviewed by the FBI.
Detectives booked him into the King County Jail for investigation of robbery. More charges are expected to follow.
