Just before 5 p.m. Wednesday, a woman walked into Alaska USA Federal Credit Union on 125 E. Dimond Blvd., the FBI wrote in a release.
Anchorage police indentified a person of interest in the robberies as 41-year-old Jennifer Trengrove. She was described as a white woman, 5 feet, 7 inches tall and weighing around 220 pounds.
The woman "handed the teller a note" and left with an "undisclosed amount of cash," wrote FBI spokesperson Staci Feger-Pellessier. The Anchorage Police Department said in a Wednesday statement that the woman also "implied" that she had a weapon.
After leaving the bank, the suspect got into the passenger side of a newer-model red Ford F-150 pickup.
Then, just before 4 p.m. Thursday, a suspect matching the same description committed another robbery at Alaska USA Federal Credit Union at 310 E. Northern Lights Blvd., Feger-Pellessier wrote.
The suspect has a black tattoo behind her right ear, Feger-Pellessier wrote.
Anyone with information about the robberies is asked to call the FBI at 907-276-4441.
