The FBI is seeking the public’s help to identify a man who has robbed four Wells Fargo banks.

And Wells Fargo is willing to put up some money — $5,000 — to help catch him.

The FBI describes the suspect as a black male with slim build who is about 5 feet, 6 inches tall. In each of the robberies, he appears to wear a Nike baseball cap.
