The description and surveillance photos from the banks appear to show the same suspect who robbed two downtown Honolulu banks earlier this month — the Tuesday robbery of the Hawaii National Bank at 10:25 a.m. at 841 Bishop St. and the Dec. 9 robbery of the Territorial Savings & Loan at 1000 Bishop St.
The man is not believed to be the so-called "backpack bandit." who is wanted for four bank robberies this year.
