FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Shreveport Police need your help

Shreveport Police Detectives are hoping someone will identify a very clear picture of the suspect who attempted to rob the AmSouth Bank in the 3700 block of Youree Drive this morning.

At about 9:30 a.m., a female who looked to be white or possibly bi-racial entered the bank wearing a hat and sunglasses. She was asked to take off the hat and sunglasses. She did so and then gave the teller a note, which demanded money. While the teller was delayed in getting money, the suspect apparently got scared and left.

She reportedly got into a white late-model Toyota Camry. A blonde white female was driving.

The robber is described as a light skinned female with brownish red tinted, curly hair. She was wearing a blue ball cap, blue shirt and shorts. She was about 5'4" tall, 125 pounds and about 25 years of age.

Anyone who recognizes this woman is asked to call Detective Rod Demery at 673-6955 or Crime Stoppers at 673-7300.
