Chesterfield, VA—Police are searching for a woman believed to have robbed four Chesterfield banks since July 12.

A Black female suspect is said to be involved in the following robberies:

In each incident, the suspect approached a teller and demanded money. In the Virginia Credit Union robbery, the suspect told tellers she had a bomb, and left a suspicious package in the bank.

There were no injuries in any of the incidents.

The suspect is described as a Black female, about 40 to 55 years old and 5 feet 3 inches tall. In several robberies, she has worn what appears to be a short, reddish-brown or auburn wig and glasses.

Police ask anyone with information about this suspect or any of these incidents to contact the Chesterfield County Police Department at 804-748-1251 or Crime Solvers at 804-748-0660. A cash reward of up to $1000 is offered for information which helps solve the crime.
