A man wanted after a bank robbery in Toronto last month has turned himself in, police say.

Toronto police said that on Nov. 28, officers responded to a holdup call in the area of Victoria Park and Danforth avenues.

A man allegedly entered the bank wearing a mask to hide his identity, approached a teller and produced a note demanding cash.
