The FBI in Oregon is offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to the identification, arrest and conviction of a bank robbery suspect who investigators have nicknamed "Froggy Robber". This suspect earned his nickname because in each of the four bank robberies he is suspected of committing he jumps over the teller counter to get to the cash. In each of the robberies, the man used a knife to threaten the bank employees as well.
The robberies include:

- Wearing a black Columbia raincoat with a bright orange Oregon State Beavers' logo on the front and the word "Columbia" on the left sleeve. Also wearing a black cap.
