By Kareem Johnson, DNAinfo
UPPER WEST SIDE – This casino-loving, gun-toting bank robbery suspect doesn't know when to fold 'em, the FBI says.
Sam Chatman, 54, who is known to frequent casinos, allegedly robbed two Upper West Side Chase Bank branches at gunpoint in June and July, the agency said.
The FBI says that Chatman, who is 5-foot-7 to 5-foot-9 and 200 pounds, should be considered armed and dangerous. He is believed to have several weapons.
The suspect allegedly held up a Chase Bank at 2438 Broadway, near West 90th Street, on June 18 and then hit another branch at 2824 Broadway, near West 109th Street, on July 27.In both cases, he used a semi-automatic handgun, according to FBI spokeswoman Adrienne Senatore.
There were no reported injuries in either robbery and authorities haven't disclosed the amount of money taken. The suspect will be placed on the New York FBI's Most Wanted robbers list next week, she said.
“Chatman’s behavior is not only increasingly violent, but completely erratic,” said Supervisory Special Agent Barbara Daly in a statement.
