A man robbed a bank last week in Midlothian, his second south suburban bank robbery in less than a month.

The most recent robbery happened at a BMO Harris branch at 4050 147th St. in Midlothian at 12:03 p.m. Thursday, according to the FBI.

The suspect was described as a black male, about 6-foot-5 and wearing a red, white and blue flannel shirt over a white t-shirt and dark pants, FBI spokesman Garrett Croon said. He walked out of the bank and was last seen walking north toward Karlov.

About 3 p.m. Aug. 9, the same suspect robbed a U.S. Bank branch at 8739 S. Harlem Ave. in Bridgeview, according to the FBI. During that robbery, he wore a white polo and black floral hat.

He did not show a weapon during either robbery.

Anyone with information should call the FBI at (312) 421-6700.
