Three Attempted Bank Robberies in Fairfax Co.

Fairfax County Police are looking for the perpetrators of a string of bank robberies this weekend.

Police say that three bank robberies were attempted, and one successfully carried out, at three separate locations on Richmond High during the midday hours Saturday.

At around 11 a.m., police say an unarmed woman walked into the SunTrust Bank branch at 5922 Richmond Highway and unsuccessfully attempted to rob the bank before leaving.

Sometime between 11 a.m. and 12:22 p.m., investigators say a man and a woman entered the Wells Fargo branch at 6300 Richmond Highway and unsuccessfully attempted to rob the bank. Neither person was armed.

The third, successful robbery took place at the BB&T branch at 6618 Richmond Highway. Police say that robbery was executed by one man. It is unclear at this point whether the robberies are connected.
