A suspect made away with $300 after robbing the same bank in Brampton two days in a row, police say.

Peel Regional Police said they’re still trying to identify the individual.

On Feb. 14 at around 2:50 p.m., the suspect went into a bank in the Main Street North and Brickyard Way area of Brampton and handed a teller a note demanding cash, police said.

“The suspect obtained a quantity of money and fled the area on foot,” police said.
