Adam Sallet was reporting the story live for KIMT-TV while standing outside Sterling State Bank in Rochester, Minnesota, when a bank employee ran out and pointed to the suspect, who had just hit the bank for a second time.
Mr Sallet broke away from the report, saying "I have to go. I have to call 911."
The Minnesota State Patrol police said a 36-year-old man from Rochester was later pulled over and arrested.
During both robberies the suspect presented staff with a note and made off with an undisclosed sum of cash.
Mr Sallet said later: "We always strive to get live breaking news as it happens, but I tell you what we never though we'd be apart of the story kind of like this."
