FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif. (AP) — Authorities say a man suspected of robbing a Southern California bank was arrested when he returned to try and rob the same branch the following day.

The next morning, police received a call about another robbery in progress at the same bank.
Officers responded and arrested the 33-year-old suspect.
The man has prior robbery convictions and was being held at the Orange County Jail for lack of $170,000 bail.
