CHICAGO – Authorities are searching for a man who reportedly robbed two suburban banks.
The FBI said just before 5 p.m. Friday, authorities responded to a bank robbery at the Old National Bank, located in the 1000 block of Dixie Highway in Chicago Heights. The suspect went inside the bank, showed a silver hand gun and demanded money from the teller.
The same suspect is then believed to have gone to a Fifth-Third Bank, located in the 15500 block of South Cicero Avenue in Oak Forest, and conducted a similar robbery there.
Authorities described the suspect as a man between 30-40 years old with a medium build. He was wearing a grey or beige t-shirt, light colored jeans with rips at the knees and black sneakers. The suspect also wore a dark-colored baseball cap during the Chicago Heights robbery and a green bucket hat during the Oak Forest robbery. He was also carrying a black cross-body bag.
No injuries were reported during either incident.
