Both robberies happened around 11am but had different outcomes.
In one of the them, authorities arrested the suspect shortly after he targeted a bank in the 12200 block of the Northwest Freeway.
Authorities caught him after they spotted his getaway vehicle and chased him into the woods.
Several blocks away, in the 1200 block of West 43rd Street, another bank was targeted by a robber. In this one, the suspect walked in, ordered a teller to hand over the cash and walked away with an undisclosed amount of money.
