The FBI is looking for a suspected Houston-area bank robber dubbed the "Mummy Marauder" because of the white gauze covering his face during a Friday the 13th caper.
The suspect entered a First Convenience Bank branch at around 11:30 a.m. wearing a baseball cap, dreadlock wig, sunglasses and white gauze covering his face and right hand.

He approached the teller and verbally threatened her while demanding cash, the FBI said in a news release.
He fled with an undisclosed amount of cash and got into a black Mitsubishi Montero SUV being driven by someone else.
"It's a little early for Halloween," FBI spokesman Connor Hagen told Fox News. "This guy did go into a regular business ... he terrorized the tellers, and these were people going about their everyday business."
