LONDON (Reuters) - A British robber who stole 115,000 pounds ($211,300) in cash from a bank broke back in a week later to give most of it back, police said on Tuesday.

The thief got into the Barclays Bank in east London, smashed a window and helped himself to the cash in the ATM machine.

A week later baffled staff called detectives to say the robber had returned 104,000 pounds.

"We were contacted by staff saying a large amount of cash had been found in a black bag in the premises," a police spokesman said.

Police are probing whether the bizarre double break-in, thought to be unique in Britain, was an inside job, the Sun newspaper said.
