The most recent robbery occurred just before 11:45 a.m. Tuesday at the Bank of America, located at 4301 San Felipe Street.

Authorities said the suspect entered the bank dressed as a female, then approached a teller and handed them a sticky note which threatened the teller and demanded cash.

The teller then walked away from the counter and locked themselves in the back room for safety.

The suspect remained in the bank lobby for a short time, then fled the scene on foot without any money.

No one was physically harmed during the robbery, officials said.
