A suspect police dubbed the “lunchtime bandit” who allegedly has an appetite for cash has been arrested.

Police say the robberies occurred between Nov. 21 and Dec. 17 at banks located along Yonge St. between Lawrence Ave. and Davisville Ave.

Four of the five robberies took place at around 12:30 p.m. said police.

In each case, police say a man posed as a customer and then passed a note to bank tellers in which he politely demanded money and indicated he was armed with a gun.

He would then flee with the cash.

“He has a pattern of some sort, maybe he is on lunch break between 12 p.m. and 1 p.m., in that area,” Staff Insp. Mike Earl told media on Dec. 20.

The undisguised “preppy punk” was seen on surveillance cameras of a nearby subway station police said.

Social media users and critics had plenty to say about the suspect police dubbed the “lunchtime bandit.”

“What a cute nickname for someone who is ‘putting the fear of God into bank employees’ ” Twitter user @mcsammer said.

“Maybe the lunchtime bandit is leaving a trail of bread crumbs?” said Twitter user @TorontoBruce.

Michael Lilly, 20, of Toronto, has been charged with five counts of robbery.

He was scheduled to appear in court Tuesday morning.
