Bank Robber on the Run

ALBUQUERQUE – A daring daylight bank robbery left authorities scrambling to catch the suspect, but it only took a week to bring her to justice. Keylee Rose Moore, 21, of Hesperus, Colorado, made an initial appearance in federal court on June 28, facing a charge of bank robbery.

Moore will remain in custody pending a detention hearing scheduled for June 30. According to a complaint, on June 1, Moore allegedly entered a bank on Louisiana Avenue in Albuquerque and handed a demand note to a teller. After the teller handed money to Moore, Moore allegedly walked out of the bank and fled.

The FBI received a tip identifying Moore as the person who allegedly robbed the bank on June 6. Moore was arrested at her residence in Hesperus on June 17. A complaint is only an allegation. A defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

If convicted, Moore faces up to 20 years in prison. The FBI Albuquerque Division and the FBI Denver Division’s Durango Resident Agency are investigating this case with the assistance of the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, the Rocky Mountain High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Southwest Drug Task Force, the La Plata County Sheriff’s Department, and the Albuquerque Police Department.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Niki Tapia-Brito is prosecuting this case. This brazen crime has left many in the community shaken, but the swift action of law enforcement has brought the perpetrator to justice. The public can rest assured that those who commit crimes in our community will be held accountable.

The investigation and subsequent arrest are a testament to the hard work and dedication of our law enforcement agencies. The people of Albuquerque can sleep a little easier knowing that the perpetrator of this crime is off the streets.

This case highlights the importance of community involvement in keeping our communities safe. The tip that led to Moore’s arrest was provided by a concerned citizen who recognized the importance of reporting suspicious activity. We urge the public to remain vigilant and report any information that may aid in the investigation of crimes in our community.
