Have you seen this man? Manitoba RCMP looking for suspect in two bank robberies

Police allege a man went into the bank and handed the teller a note demanding money. No weapons were seen and the suspect left the bank shortly after without any money.

Mounties say that a man went into the Access Credit Union and handed the teller a note demanding money. The suspect then left the bank with an undisclosed amount of cash.
Police note the Lowe Farm suspect also drove away in a light-coloured, four-door sedan matching the description of the car used in the Steinbach attempted robbery.

Mounties believe that the same suspect was involved in both these robberies, adding that they believe he used the same car in both incidents.
