A man believed to have robbed at least six local fast-food restaurants has been identified by police as Jack Hannah.

Police issued a press release Wednesday naming Jack Hannah as a suspect and issuing an arrest warrant.

Police say Hannah apparently struck again last week, holding up a Federal Way Dairy Queen in a robbery that was caught on surveillance tape.

Surveillance video obtained by KIRO 7 Eyewitness News shows Hannah armed with a handgun, directing workers at the restaurant into a back room during the heist.

It was the seventh robbery of a fast-food restaurant in Pierce or southern King counties in recent weeks.

The description of the robber was the same in each case: He was an Asian man, 30 to 35 years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall, with black hair, a buzz cut and a mustache.

The Dairy Queen is located in the Twin Lakes area of Federal Way.

Last Saturday, police said they believe Hannah entered a Subway sandwich shop in the 4900 block of Center Street in Tacoma, demanded money, forced a clerk to the floor and fled with cash.

Anyone with information on the man is asked to call Crimestoppers of Tacoma/Pierce County at 253-591-5959. A reward of $1,000 is offered for information that leads to an arrest and filing of charges.
