The first robbery was at a Chase Bank on Almaden Expressway, followed by another at a U.S. Bank inside Nob Hill Market on Snell Avenue.
Police said in both robberies, the woman's normal appearance allowed her to escape suspicion up until the moment she walked up to the teller with a note demanding cash and stating she was armed with a gun.
Both times, the teller gave her an undisclosed amount of cash. No gun was seen and no one was hurt in either instance.
