A woman had gotten money out of the ATM at 10:16 p.m. on Oct. 3 when a man approached her car, pointed a gun at her and took her money. He also forced her to get additional money from the ATM, police said.
On Nov. 8, a man was getting money from the ATM at 11:44 p.m. when a man approached his car, pointed a gun at him and took his money and his debit card.
Last Friday, a woman was depositing a check at the ATM at 12:36 a.m. when a man approached her, pointed a gun at her and demanded money.
Investigators said they believe the same man was responsible for all three robberies.
He was described as a black man, 20 to 30 years old and 5 feet 10 inches to 6 feet tall with a medium build. He usually wears a black hoodie and a bandanna over his face, police said.
Anyone with information about the robberies is asked to call Investigator W.T. Coghill of the Durham Police Department at 919-560-4583, extension 230, or Crime Stoppers at 919-683-1200.
