Police are asking for help finding a suspect wanted in connection with a series of bank robberies in Queens.

Police say the suspect allegedly hit five banks in the area dating back to mid-July.

The most recent incident took place this past Wednesday at the Chase Bank on 31st Ave.

Police say in all five incidents, the suspect handed a note to the teller, pulled a gun out of a newspaper or his waistband.

He was then allegedly able to take off with an unknown amount of cash.

Anyone with information on the case should contact the Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS, or text CRIMES and then enter TIP577, or visit www.nypdcrimestoppers.com.
