Bank robber strikes again in Carol Stream

Police are looking for a man who robbed two Carol Stream banks in the past 10 days, including one Wednesday afternoon.

The lone suspect is accused of robbing the Charter One Bank at 451 Schmale Road between noon and 12:30 p.m. Wednesday, and of robbing the West Suburban Bank at 895 E. Geneva Road on Sept. 19, according to authorities.

The white man standing between 5-foot 10-inches and 6-feet tall is in his mid 20s with a thin build, according to police.

Authorities said the man did not show a weapon during the Sept. 19 robbery, but details of Wednesday's robbery were not available.

A reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest. Anyone with information is asked to call the Chicago office of the FBI at (312) 421-0700
