Man Called "Dapper Bandit" Is Arrested, Police Say The F.B.I. called him the Dapper Bandit because he dressed nicely for bank robberies, often wearing a suit or a sport coat. And on Tuesday, after eluding the authorities for more than three months, a suspect, identified as Dana M. Connor, was arrested in a relative's closet in Brooklyn, hiding under a pile of clothes, officials said. Investigators believe that Mr. Connor, 52, is responsible for 10 bank robberies in Midtown and Lower Manhattan, the first on Sept. 21 and the last on Dec. 27, according to a wanted poster from the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The poster, which mentions Mr. Connor by name as well as moniker, offered a few observations about the suspect's modus operandi. "He typically uses a demand note in the robberies and has displayed a black handgun," it said. Connor has dressed in a suit and button-down dress shirt. A criminal complaint filed in November charging Mr. Connor in three of the bank robberies says that in one instance Mr. Connor told a teller that he would shoot a bank manager if the teller did not comply with his demands. All told, the suspect took more than $30,000 in the robberies, the authorities said. F.B.I. agents and New York police detectives arrested Mr. Connor around noon Tuesday in a second-floor apartment in East New York. The full details of Mr. Connor's criminal history were not immediately available, but one law enforcement official said that he was arrested on weapons charges and armed robberies in the 1980s.
