Sturtevant Bank Robbery Suspect May Have Done It Again

Did the same guy rob a bank in Sturtevant on Thursday only to rob a second bank, this time in Racine, on Friday?

Police and Racine Police can't confirm they're looking for the same suspect, but the details are pretty similar as featured in a story on The Journal Times.

, a black male wearing a mask, sunglasses and a hoodie walked into the US Bank at Wisconsin Street and Highway 11 with a gun and demanded money. He arrived and left on foot and got away with an undisclosed amount of money. No one was injured.

Then, at 11 am Fri., Oct. 21, a black male entered the North Shore Bank in the 4900 block of Washington Avenue, demanded money and got away with an undisclosed amount of cash. This time, however, the perpetrator got away in a black pickup truck, headed south on Ohio Street from Washington Avenue. No one was injured.

Both suspects, however, are described as between 25-30 years old. The Sturtevant suspect is listed as six feet tall while the North Shore suspect is listed about about 6'3" with facial hair.
