- A bank thief becomes viral for his unusual choice of flight car.
- The thief fled in a Rolls-Royce Cullinan after stolen only $ 3,400.
- He rented the luxury SUV for $ 1,750 per day and is on the run.
Bank thieves often choose large, all-wheel drive and powerful cars like escape vehicles, although choosing a Rolls-Royce SUV is certainly a new on us. But that’s exactly what a thief did, and the craziest of all, he even paid $ 1,750 per day of rental costs to get there.
Metro Detroit’s man Dorian Sykes is currently wanted by the authorities after being identified as a suspect involved in two bank flights this month, which brought him $ 13,000. The first attack took place at the Credit Union One branch in Sterling Heights on March 6, when Sykes escaped with $ 10,169.

Six days later, on March 12, he would have entered Chase Bank in the village of Lathrup where he exceeded the cashier a note that made the crystal clear what was going on.
“Give me all the money, I have a gun, I will kill everyone,” said the note, according to a Fox2 Detroit report.
But “all the money” turned out to be barely money. The suspect fled with only $ 3,400 – not enough to cover the two -day rental of the Cullinan flight car waiting outside.
The Rolls was rented to Sam Zahar of Dream Luxury Rental in Southfield, who knew nothing about the life of the crime of Cullinan until he recognizes him in a video on social networks. It is the same rental agency that recently missed a Ghost Rolls during transport in Florida after the hackers changed the delivery address.
The Cullinan was finally recovered after having undergone approximately $ 15,000 in damages, but Sykes – which was identified as the attacker by the FBI – has not been arrested and is still wanted by the police.
The rental of a very catchy luxury SUV of $ 400,000 to make a bank flight rather than flying something more discreet for work does not seem so intelligent, but if Sykes is the perp, it is not as if it were new in the game. Fox2 reports that he was in the monitored liberation since February, having been condemned in relation to a robbery of the bank in 2020. black.
