FBI: Woman in burka attempts to rob Wells Fargo Bank in National City
San Diego Channel 10 news ^ | August 2, 2013

Authorities are seeking for the public's help Friday in locating a woman who tried to rob a bank in National City.

The attempted robbery occurred at around 6 p.m. Thursday at a Wells Fargo Bank branch at 1199 Highland Ave., according to FBI Special Agent Darrell Foxworth.

"At the time of the robbery, the woman entered the bank and stood in the teller line until summoned by a teller," Foxworth said. "Upon arriving at the teller counter, the woman presented a demand note."

The teller read some of the demand note then alerted another bank employee, Foxworth said.

The woman waited a few seconds then walked out of the bank without any money, according to Foxworth.

No injuries were reported.

The suspect was female with an olive complexion and heavy eye makeup and wearing a maroon colored burka and light colored or white shoes, according to Foxworth. She was about 5 feet 6 inches tall and in her late 20s to early 30s, according to Foxworth.

10News learned, however, that the proper name for what the woman was wearing is a niqab.

It is unclear how the woman fled the scene.

Shouldn’t that be “NIJAB”? With a J?

Wel...`hijab’ with a `j’ is the muzzie headscarf.

The letter `q’ without a `u’ is used to transliterate the hard `k’ sound, thus `niqab’, the full muzzie face muzzle.

For example, `Samarkand’ can also be `Samarqand’.

Anyway, hope they nail this niqab’d creep.

In spfld mo there were so many bank robberies the city enforced the no hat, no sunglasses, no hoodies in the bank law. I guess they better add the Muslim garbs to the list.

Thanks for the info. Very important to be correct in regard to the attire of our peace-loving muzzie friends, dontcha know. Boy, I’m proud of my progress. Previously, my only description would have been raghead.
Thanks again.

FWIW, the term `burka’ (or burqa - see?) refers to the tentlike garment women in Afghanistan are forced to wear, with only a cloth grille in front of the face for breathing or speaking (when allowed to do so).

Barbaric & primitive in any setting, but here in America the burqa/chador/niqab all send the same message:

“In your face, `infidels’! We do not share your values, but Allah willing, you soon will be sharing ours!”

Don’t these muzzies realize just how sinister a pair of staring eyes look with no face visible? Or maybe they do.
