OAKLAND PARK, Fla. (WSVN) -- Authorities are searching for a bank robber who struck not once, but twice, police said.

According to authorities, the alleged crook was caught during one of the robberies armed with a shotgun. The suspect demanded money from a teller back in August, police said.

The crook took off with cash from the Chase branch along East Commercial Boulevard and North Dixie Highway. Investigators said the same man hit a nearby Bank of America, less than a month later.

If you recognize this man, call Broward County Crime Stoppers at 954-493-TIPS. Remember, you can always remain anonymous, and you may be eligible for a reward worth up to $5,000.
