The NYPD is searching for a suspect wanted in a series of bank robberies this month, the latest on Saturday.
Police said the suspect demanded cash from a TD bank at 3798 Broadway in Washington Heights at 11 a.m. Saturday and made $ 759.
The NYPD released a photo of the suspect wearing a surgical mask under his mouth as he affixed his tattooed hand through Taylor’s window to get cash.
