At the tail-end of 2016, Toronto's banks and coffee shops seemed to be the target of two unrelated crime sprees. But Toronto Police have arrested and charged two suspects in connection with these incidents.
The Lunchtime Bandit was wanted for a series of five bank roberies in four weeks on Yonge Street between Davisville and Lawrence Street West, between noon and 1 p.m.
Michael Lilly, 20, was arrested in connection with the robberies. He was reportedly charged with five counts of robbery by Toronto Police and appeared in court on Tuesday morning.
The alleged Coffee Shop Bandit was arrested on Monday in connection with a string of cafe and bakery robberies on the city's east side.
Steven Philips, 52, was charged with 12 counts of break-and-enter, 14 counts of breach of probation, and one count of possessing burglar tools. He also appeared in court Tuesday morning.
Our dispatchers play a vital role in policing. They are the super hero that deal with what they deal with daily! 😆 #police #lego #dispatcher http://pic.twitter.com/munjtFRm06
