A convicted felon is now wanted in connection with two bank robberies in Western New York last October.

Investigators say Michael Keitz robbed the M&T Bank on Niagara Falls Boulevard in Amherst.

He allegedly handed a teller a note demanding money, and threatening to detonate a bomb.

One week later, investigators say he robbed the Northwest Savings Bank on West State Street in Olean.

Investigators say he handed a teller a note demanding money or the teller would "get shot."

Keitz should be considered armed an dangerous.
