Police said John Baer, recently paroled for two 2004 bank jobs, was photographed in a Philadelphia Eagles football Donovan McNabb jersey on Tuesday robbing a PNC Bank of $1,000, then on Friday robbing the credit union, when he got away with $600.
On Tuesday, Baer’s parole caseworker saw her client on the evening news wearing a No. 5 Eagles jersey in a bank surveillance photo and she called police. She told an FBI investigator that the McNabb jersey and the McDonald's uniform were the only clothes Baer owns.
