It's a bird!

It's a plane!

No, it's a 5-foot-10, 300-pound man in a Superman T-shirt and gym shorts wanted by the FBI for a recent Springfield bank robbery.

It's been four days since the unidentified man walked into the Legacy Bank and Trust on South National Avenue on Friday, presented a note to a teller, and proceeded to leave the business near James River Freeway on foot.

Springfield Police and the FBI are searching for a man that robbed a local bank on Friday.

The man who appears to be in his 40s did not present a weapon, according to police, but was able to get away with an undisclosed amount of money.

He is still on the run and the FBI and Springfield Police Department are encouraging any potential witnesses or anyone with additional information to call the FBI at 816-512- 8200  SPD at 417-864-1386.

Surveillance photos of the man spread quickly on social media, with many residents and local businesses adding a touch of humor to the situation.

"Man of the Steal" was used in a social media post by the Springfield Daily Citizen. Hurts Donuts posted a picture of several donuts with his picture in the frosting.

The News-Leader reached out to police and Legacy Bank and Trust for more details on the robbery, but neither said they could comment on an active investigation.
