A FedGov lawyer would tell you, with a straight face:

Because the money in the banks crosses borders.

Because the suspect might have recently crossed a border.

Because the jurisdiction here is well inside the lines by precedent (i.e. other outrages are even worse so leave us alone about this one).

Among other technicalities, because the deposits in the bank are insured by the federal government (via FDIC).
