The woman walked into the BMO Harris Bank on North Farnsworth Avenue shortly before 11 a.m. Saturday and handed the teller a note demanding money, official said. When the teller went into a back room to notify a manager, the woman took back the note and left the bank.

The woman is described as about 5'3" and 200 pounds in her late 20s to early 30s.

Anyone with information should call the FBI at 312-421-6700.
