Brooklyn
The “Holiday Bandit” has struck again.
Marat Mikhaylich, 35, named for previous hits around the holidays, knocked off his sixth bank Sunday — the Capital One branch on 14th Avenue near 47th Street in Borough Park — authorities said.
He allegedly flashed a black hand gun while passing the teller a demand note at around 10 a.m.
The bank employee did not have enough dough to satisfy the thief, so he moved on to a second teller, sources said.
The suspect eventually tore out of the bank and ran down the street. It’s not clear if he got any cash.
Mikhaylich is allegedly responsible for five other bank robberies over three boroughs starting on Dec. 9.

An off-duty school-bus driver was nabbed for driving drunk after she plowed into an FDNY vehicle in Gravesend, police said.
It was the second DWI bust for the driver in less than two years.
In the latest incident, Yolanda Grecco, 52, was behind the wheel of the minibus at about 5:30 p.m. Sunday , when she collided with the fire vehicle on Avenue U near Coney Island Avenue, outside Engine Co. 254/ Ladder Co. 153, police said.
When cops arrived, they suspected Grecco had been drinking, sources said.
A routine warrant check revealed that she was wanted for failing to appear in court in connection with a prior DWI arrest, in Bath Beach in March 2009.

Three crooks terrorized a car-service owner with a samurai sword during a botched robbery in Bushwick, authorities said yesterday.
Marcos Ramos, 20, who was brandishing the sword, Martin Rosales, 25, and an unidentified accomplice surrounded the 45-year-old victim on Melrose Street near Bushwick Avenue at 3:30 a.m. Sunday, cops said.
They started punching and kicking the man while grabbing at his pockets, cops said.
Ramos then allegedly swung the sword at the victim but missed.
An officer on patrol saw the confrontation and quickly arrested Ramos and Rosales. The third man is at large.
Manhattan
A youth was caught in the act — not once but twice — allegedly burglarizing Midtown restaurants.
Carl Greene, 19, was first nabbed by a cop shortly before 1 a.m. Jan. 15 after he was spotted tugging at the locked door of Nikki’s Midtown Lounge on East 50th Street near Third Avenue, sources said.
When the cop asked him what he was doing, he claimed he was urinating, the sources said.
The cop searched Greene and allegedly found metal shards used to pick locks, and a razor.
He was arrested and charged with possession of burglar’s tools.
After his release, cops investigating another burglary, at a restaurant on Lexington Avenue near East 29th Street, later that night found video that showed Greene — wearing the same Adidas sweatshirt he was wearing at the time of his earlier arrest — prying open a cash register taken from the eatery, authorities said.
Greene was arrested Feb. 10 and charged with burglary in that case, according to a spokeswoman for DA Cyrus Vance Jr..
Staten Island
A dimwitted career criminal on the lam from cops was nabbed after he waltzed into a station house and claimed his car was stolen.
First, Eugene Gilmore, 30, pummeled his ex-girlfriend at 3:30 a.m. Feb. 7 on Sky Lane near Osgood Avenue in Park Hill, according to a spokesman for DA Dan Donovan.
Responding police charged him with assault.
Two days later, Gilmore was driving a black Jeep when cops attempted to pull him over on Vanduzer Street near Beech Street at 9:50 p.m.
He allegedly stepped on the gas and smashed into a parked car before bolting from the Jeep and fleeing. Cops found a loaded revolver on the floor of the Jeep.
Then, on Feb. 10, Gilmore walked into the 120th Precinct station house on Richmond Terrace and falsely filled out a police report for a stolen vehicle, the DA’s office said.
He was charged with falsely reporting an incident, criminal possession of a weapon, unlawful fleeing of a police officer and leaving the scene of an accident.
Gilmore has prior convictions for drugs and thefts.
