The FBI says the woman who robbed an Ayden bank on Wednesday has help-up a total of three banks since Saturday.

They're calling her the "Pink Lady Bandit" because in at least two of the robberies she carried a pink bag. The Southern Bank on West Third Street in Ayden was robbed around 4:15 p.m. Wednesday by a woman who handed a teller a threatening note.

The FBI says the woman fits the description of a woman who robbed banks in Delaware and Pennsylvania. There is currently a $10,000 reward for information that leads to arrest.
