FBI Searching for “Rub-a-Dub Robber”

A woman wearing a purple shower cap and pajamas robbed a teller at gunpoint this morning at the Lonestar Bank, located at 7630 Highway 6 in Houston, Texas. Members of the Houston FBI’s Bank Robbery Task Force need your help in locating her. She’s been dubbed the “Rub-a-Dub Robber” because of the unusual attire she wore during the robbery.

At approximately 10:00 a.m., the woman entered the bank, pulled out a black semi-automatic pistol, and pointed it at a teller. She told the teller to hurry up and asked her to put the money in a brown paper bag she carried with her inside the bank. The teller gave the woman some cash. No one was physically hurt during the robbery. The woman was seen leaving the area in a beige-colored, older model sedan.

The bank robber is described as a black female, about 25 years old, 5’8” tall, 160-170 pounds, with a medium to large build, and a medium to dark complexion. She wore a purple shower cap on her head and greenish-yellow pajamas pants with animal or child-like figures on them. She wore a dark colored shirt and a hoodie and carried a black semi-automatic pistol and a brown paper bag during the robbery.
