Loan Ranger Bandit
The Loan Ranger Bandit[1] is an American bank robber who committed a series of bank robberies throughout the states of Texas, Mississippi, Kentucky and Arkansas,[2] beginning in 2009. The Loan Ranger Bandit has been positively identified as 37-year-old Richard Swicegood of Waxahachie, Texas following a traffic stop by Arkansas State Police in early July, 2014 thanks to his trademark mask, gun and bag with a dollar sign on it. The traffic stop followed a robbery of the Summit Bank in Benton, Arkansas on July 1, 2014 believed to have been committed by Swicegood.[3][4]
The robber is responsible for at least ten separate bank robberies according to the FBI.[5] In addition, the FBI's major case hotline cites a number of initial options to a caller, one of which is for those seeking to provide information to the FBI on the Loan Ranger Bandit. Swicegood is incarcerated.[citation needed]
