Known As The Hollywood Bandit, He Stole Over $1 Million From Banks While Wearing Elaborate Disguises And Costume Makeup, Managing To Evade Arrest For Years

Eventually, the FBI figured out that the dates of the bank robberies correlated with the times he was low on cash due to his excessive spending habits.

In 1996, Scurlock’s criminal career came to an end at a Seafirst Bank branch. The botched burglary led to a high-speed police chase and a standoff.

Initially, Scurlock managed to escape on foot. He hid in a mobile home, but the property owners noticed he was there and contacted the authorities.

Immediately, police officers surrounded the home. They heard a gunshot from inside. When they finally made their way inside, they discovered that Scurlock had taken his own life to avoid capture.

In the face of arrest, the Hollywood Bandit, mastermind of multiple robberies, had shot himself. His associates, including Biggins, went to jail for their crimes.
