Roberto Solis

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roberto Solis (born 1945) is an armored car robber, convicted murderer and poet. He had over thirty aliases including Pancho Aguila, a pen name he used in prison while writing poetry.

In 1969, Solis held up an armored car in San Francisco. He shot the guard in the back and grabbed the money bag but it was empty. The guard died and Solis did 24 years in Folsom prison. In 1992, Solis made parole and began calling himself Julius Suave. He hooked up with a 20-year-old woman named Heather Tallchief. He and Tallchief stole about three million dollars from an armored car in Las Vegas, Nevada. Tallchief turned herself in 2006, but Solis remains a fugitive.
