Wild Bank-Robbing criminal criminal who has NYC publisher is broken in White Rolls Royce

He is the bank builder.

A career and a moonlighting criminal crime novelist for a New York publisher was due to alleged continuation of his main source of income: robbery of banks.

Dorian Sykes from Detroit made his last short vacation in a White Rolls Royce SUV just to be caught in an MGM Grand Hotel – where he had lived with vouchers for free, the authorities said.

The 41-year-old Sykes would have celebrated the publication of his latest novel with Urban Books in a story on the Detroits's pages of crime, Elmore Leonard, when he was trapped for the attack on March 12, celebrated the 41-year-old Sykes.

Sykes is accused of entering the Chase Bank in Lathpup Village, a suburb of Detroit, and giving a retreat slip with the message: “Give me all the money, I have a weapon … I will kill everyone here”, according to the criminal complaint that is scribbled on it.

The frightened cashier gave more than 3,400 US dollars in cash, and Sykes was caught on video and fled the dough – in the luxury rolls, the authorities said.

Sykes was still on probation after being released from the federal prison in February 2024 because he was convicted of another robbery in 2020.

The FBI investigators soon found Sykes' probation assistant that he lived for free in the hotel, put him out and grabbed him in his rolls.

Sykes was also charged with another robbery near Sterling Heights, who performed six days earlier, in which 10,169 US dollars were stolen in cash.

“Syke's' story paints a disturbing and unmistakable image of a person who completely disregarded the law,” wrote the deputy US lawyer Frances Carlson in a conviction memorandum at the end of 2020.

Sykes has released nine novels with Urban Books, a company from the Big Apple, which was managed by the bestselling author of the New York Times, Carl Weber.

Weber told Detroit News that he was vague with Sykes and said that each of his novels sold up to 2,500 copies.

“He is pretty small to be honest,” said Weber. “He would not be in this situation if he was” a more successful author.

Sykes is now celebrating the publication of his latest book “Born to Die” – to get out next month – behind bars.

The cover has a neat gentleman, which is decorated in Gangster Couture, which stands over a table with a stack of cocaine and a hundred dollar bill to sniff it

The crime of March 12th could inspire him for his next book.

Sykes composes his novels behind bars, and his author biography on the Barnes & Noble website says:

“At the moment Mr. Sykes lives in Detroit and is constantly working to give readers new hot material.”

His books are also available as audio books from Amazon.
