Police are looking for a man who held up the Peoples Bank branch at Greenwood Avenue and Grassy Plain Street on Monday.
Just about noon, a black male wearing a black hooded coat walked into the bank and demanded cash from a teller. The robber didn't display a weapon, and no one was hurt, Capt. Robert Cedergren said.
The description of the robber is similar to that of a suspect in two Danbury bank robberies over the past two weeks, and Bethel detectives are working with Danbury police to see if the heists are connected, he said.
Today's theft makes three robberies in the Danbury area in last couple of weeks.

On September 26, 2007, ten plaintiffs filed suit in response to an arrest of aday laborers at a public park in Danbury, Connecticut. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on November 26, 2007.
The amended complaint states that plaintiffs sought to remedy the continued discriminatory and unauthorized enforcement of federal immigration laws against the Latino residents of the City of Danbury by Danbury's mayor and its police department.
Plaintiffs allege that the arrests violated their Fourth Amendment rights and the Connecticut Constitution because defendants conducted the arrests without valid warrants, in the absence of exigent circumstances, and without probable cause to believe that plaintiffs were engaged in unlawful activity. In addition, plaintiffs allege that defendants improperly stopped, detained, investigated, searched and arrested plaintiffs. Plaintiffs also allege that defendants violated their Fourteenth Amendment rights when they intentionally targeted plaintiffs, and arrested and detained them on the basis of their race, ethnicity and perceived national origin. Plaintiffs raise First Amendment, Due Process and tort claims.
Plaintiffs request declaratory relief, damages and attorneys fees.
