Police are seeking a female Las Vegas bank robbery suspect.

Based on the surveillance photos released, it appears that the female Las Vegas bank robbery suspect has held up two U.S. Banks branches.

She walked directly over to a teller and demanded money. She lifted her black coat to display the handgun she was carrying.

Although most bank robberies are committed by males, bank robberies committed by women is on the rise.

CNN reported that in 2002, 4.9 percent of all bank robberies committed in the United States were by women. By 2009, that number had risen to 6.2 percent.

Female bank robbers are usually not armed and their motives for robbing a bank differ from the male counterparts. Men generally rob banks to obtain money to support a gambling or drug  habit whereas women usually rob banks to  to put food on the table and take care of their children.

In a transient city like Las Vegas where prostitution and drug abuse are rampant, the motives of female bank robbers might be more similar to that of male bank robbers.
