A Chiefs superfan is listed as the Kansas City area's fifth-most wanted fugitive.

If Babudar is found, he will be held on $1 million bail because he's accused of removing the ankle monitor.

KC Crime Stoppers' site says Babudar is on the list for "failure to appear in court, warrant for bank robbery." 

Babudar was scheduled to make a court appearance in Bixby to be arraigned on charges from the robbery, according to FOX4 KC.

Two days before the Chiefs were to play the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium in Houston in December, fans wondered where Babudar’s Chiefs-centric tweets were because he's normally active during the games.

People on Reddit were quick to make the connection that the superfan was arrested for allegedly robbing a bank in Bixby, Oklahoma.

He pleaded not guilty to the charges and was released on bond in February.
