The suspects, who hold drivers at gunpoint and zip tie them, have made off with more than $550,000 in five robberies.
The FBI and other agencies are searching for six suspected armored-car robbers they say stole $550,000-plus in the last year in Hawthorne, Inglewood and South Los Angeles.One of the six fugitives, authorities said, is James Russell Davis, 34, of Los Angeles, Hobson’s half-brother.
Law enforcement calls the seven, and others if they exist, the Chesapeake Bandits, because investigators say they belief the suspects met and planned robberies from a home in the 2900 block of Chesapeake Avenue in the West Adams neighborhood of Los Angeles. No injuries have been reported, although Hobson fired a shot during one robbery, U.S. Attorney Martin Estrada said.
Surveillance cameras catch three suspects during an armed robbery at a Bank of America branch in Inglewood on June 9, 2022. The robbers staked out the targets for weeks using a white Chevrolet Tahoe owned by Davis, according to a criminal complaint. All of the robberies took place in the morning or early afternoon.
