Woman Draws Beard On Face, Robs Tuscaloosa Bank With Fake Bomb

Woman Draws Beard On Face, Robs Bank

Some bank robbers scribble their demands on notes and pass them to tellers. Others scribble beards on their faces.

A woman sporting men's clothing and a drawn-on beard held up a bank in Tuscaloosa, Ala., armed with a box that she claimed contained a bomb, according to police.

After fleeing with the cash on July 29, the thief left behind the box, which a bomb squad later determined contained no explosives, Al.com reports.

FBI investigators suspect that the woman also robbed a bank in Brookwood, Ala. on July 19, according to the Tuscaloosa News.

The bearded female bandit is only the latest in a long list of bizarre bank robbers.

The story comes shortly after the so-called "Bouquet Bandit" plead guilty to robbing two banks last year while carrying flowers.
