HOUSTON - The "Sticky Note Bandit" is on the loose in Houston and the FBI is asking the public for help finding him.
Authorities have dubbed a man who has committed three bank robberies in the last 10 days as the "Sticky Note Bandit". Crime Stoppers of Houston is offering a $5,000 award for information leading to the identification and arrest of the robber.
The reason police have given him the name is in every robbery he has committed, he’s passed the bank teller a note.
According to officials, the first robbery he allegedly committed was on July 5, around 1:30 p.m. at the Hancock Whitney Bank located at 2979 North Loop West.

The man is said to have entered the bank dressed as a female, walked up to the teller, and gave them a threatening sticky note demanding cash. He left the bank on foot with an undisclosed amount of money, officials say. No one was physically hurt during the robbery.
The second robbery he was accused to be involved in was on July 11, around 12:09 p.m. at the Wells Fargo Bank located at 13106 Woodforest Blvd in east Houston.
Same as the first robbery, he entered the bank dressed as a female, waited in line, then approached a teller and handed them a threatening note written on a sticky note which demanded cash, FBI Houston says.
