Support the independent voice of Houston and help keep the future of Houston Press free.
Says the FBI:
At approximately noon , the suspect entered the banking area within the grocery store and stood in the teller line. He was approached by a bank employee, and he walked off, returning shortly thereafter. He again stood in the teller line, was again approached by a bank employee, and again left the area, this time actually exiting the Randall's store. Moments later, he re-entered the banking area and approached a teller, handing over a note which claimed that he would shoot the teller if she didn't provide him with cash.
No weapon was shown, and no one was physically hurt. He was seen leaving the area on foot.
Maybe he was just shy about his lipstick, or self-conscious about the pretty half-assed attempt at make-up on his face.
At any rate, if you see this guy -- who, despite his disguise, gave up a pretty good look to the security camera -- call Crime Stoppers.
Keep the Houston Press Free... Since we started the Houston Press, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Houston, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Houston with no paywalls.
