SOUTHLAKE — Bank of America employees told police Friday that two men wearing Spider-Man masks had robbed the bank.

But after reviewing photos from security cameras, FBI investigators now think one robber was a Spider-Woman, police said Wednesday.

The robbers entered the bank in the 2000 block of West Southlake Boulevard about 9:30 a.m. One jumped onto a counter and the other threatened employees and customers with a handgun.

The bandits left in a dark minivan with a broken rear passenger window covered by a red tarp or blanket, police said.

Anyone with information should call Southlake police at 817-748-8127.
