Police are investigating the robbery of a TD Bank on Friday night -- the second bank robbery in Franklin Square in as many days.
Four employees and two patrons were in the bank at the time of the robbery, which happened about 7:40 p.m., police said. No injuries were reported.
Police described the suspect as a male, 30 to 35 years old, about 6 feet, wearing sunglasses, a yellow baseball hat, a long-sleeve black shirt and blue jeans.
No further description was available.
It was unclear whether the incident is related to one that occurred Thursday morning at a Roslyn Savings Bank inside the Pathmark at 460 Franklin Ave., police said.
Detectives ask anyone with information about the robbery to contact Crime Stoppers at 800-244-TIPS. All callers will remain anonymous.
