Wanted by FBI for Bank Robbery

October 26, 2009

MINNESOTA NEWS -- An unidentified female described to have a heavy build, is most wanted for the robbery of the TCF Bank located in Cub Foods at 12900 Riverdale Avenue North, Coon Rapids, Minnesota. The lone female we are nicknaming the "Minnesota Whale Bandit" entered the bank and presented a note to a bank teller informing her that the bank was being robbed. After the teller turned over an undisclosed amount of money, the robber fled the bank and Cub Foods on foot (Sorry, I can't imagine this woman running out of a grocery store).
