Woman, 79, tried to hold up bank
A 79-year-old woman was arrested in Chicago after she tried to hold up a bank at gunpoint.
She wore a white visor that read "princess" and black sunglasses when she tried to hold up the bank with a toy gun.
The Chicago Sun-Times says she could be the oldest woman ever charged with bank robbery in the city.
An FBI agent's affidavit says she walked into a Bank of America branch and told a female cashier she could not speak very loud because she had just come from the dentist.
When the cashier leaned forward, the woman pulled out what appeared to be a gun and said: "Give me $30,000. My friend is across the street. And no dye."
However, the cashier reached into her drawer and activated a silent alarm before walking away from the counter.
The robber waited a few minutes then walked out of the bank, ditching her trench coat as she left. A bank employee flagged down a police officer who arrested her outside.
