Man Robs Two Loop Banks In 10 Minutes

CHICAGO (STMW) -- A man robbed two banks in the Loop about 10 minutes apart Wednesday morning.

The man walked into a Chase Bank branch at 10 S. Dearborn St. at 8:42 a.m., implied he had a weapon and presented the teller with a note demanding cash, according to Chicago Police and the FBI.

Ten minutes later, a man matching the description of the suspect in the first robbery entered the Citibank branch at 11 S. LaSalle St., implied he had a weapon and asked for cash, police said.

The suspect is described a black man in his late 30s to 40s, between 5-foot-8 and 6-foot-2, and wearing a black hooded jacket, according to the FBI.

No one was hurt during the robberies, authorities said, and no one is in custody.

Anyone with information should call the FBI at (312) 421-6700.
