Police are searching for suspects in three bank robberies, two of them committed back-to-back on Saturday possibly by the same man.

On Saturday the Bank of Hawaii Chinatown branch at 101 North King Street was robbed at 10:15 a.m.; and the American Savings Bank, Walmart Branch, located at 700 Keeaumoku Street at 11:05 a.m. The First Hawaiian Bank, 1580 Kapiolani was robbed at about 2:30 p.m. Friday.

On Saturday in Chinatown, a male handed a teller at Bank of Hawaii a demand note and stated that he had a weapon, police said. He fled on foot in an unknown direction with an undisclosed amount of money. He is described as caucasian, medium build, short gray hair, brown eyes and he was wearing a dark Polo shirt and aviator sunglasses.

Then at about 11:05 a.m., a man handed an American Savings teller at Walmart a demand note, and fled on foot with an undisclosed amount of money. Similar to the earlier robbery suspect, he was described as a caucasian male of medium build with thinning black hair, brown eyes and wearing a dark colored Polo shirt and aviator glasses on his head.

In the Friday robbery, police said the man handed a teller a note demanding money and indicating he had a weapon. He fled on foot on Kapiolani with an undisclosed amount of cash. The suspect is described caucasian and of stocky build, in his 50s. He has white hair and a white mustache, and walks with a “distinct waddle,” police said.
