Víctor Manuel Gerena (born June 24, 1958) is an American fugitive wanted by the FBI for the September 1983 White Eagle armed robbery, as a Wells Fargo employee and a member of the Boricua Popular Army, of a Wells Fargo armored car facility. The more than US$7 million (equivalent to more than $22.1 million in 2024) was the largest cash robbery in U.S. history at that time.

On May 14, 1984, Gerena became the 386th fugitive to be placed on the FBI's Top Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list. He remains at large, and on April 11, 2010, became the fugitive to have spent the most time on the list, surpassing Donald Eugene Webb, who was removed from the list on March 31, 2007, after 25 years, 10 months, and 27 days after Webb was presumed dead. Gerena was removed from the list on December 15, 2016, after 32 years. He is believed to be living in Cuba.
