Correction: Virginia Beach Police said Thursday that the information it had provided on the date of the incident at the Wells Fargo was incorrect. The incident is alleged to have taken place Nov. 20, and not Nov. 30, as it initially stated.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) — Two people working together schemed to steal $33,000 from a woman who had just withdrawn the money from a Virginia Beach Wells Fargo, police said.

Virginia Beach Police are looking for two suspects, a man and a woman, who they allege stole the money from the woman Nov. 20.

The female suspect entered the Wells Fargo Bank on Providence Road right after the victim, according to VBPD, and although she stood in line, she never approached a teller.

Meanwhile, the male suspect was outside allegedly deflating the victim’s car tire, as picked up on surveillance video.

“It looks like they were working together, and … one was already outside messing with the woman’s vehicle while the other was inside trying to appear to use the bank,” said Virginia Beach Police Public Information Officer Jude Brenya.

When the victim — apparently unaware that the female suspect was watching her — left the bank, “the male suspect was outside of the bank, and on the surveillance camera it looked like he appeared he messed with the victim’s vehicle,” Brenya said.

The male suspect went next door to the 7-Eleven, to apparently wait and watch, and when the victim was leaving, he came over to stop her car and tell her about the flat tire, Brenya said.

Diverting her attention to look at the flat tire, the female suspect grabbed the $33,000 cash from the victim’s purse “and one was able to distract the victim while the female suspect was able to reach into the victim’s vehicle and take out the money,” Brenya said.

Then they left.

Both suspects were seen on surveillance footage headed to a white SUV with possible Florida tags after taking the money.

Police are still searching for the suspects.

The Virginia Beach Police Department is asking for people to watch their surroundings and to keep their valuables on your person at all times during this time of year.

“Some safety tips we are going to have — make sure you have extra people go with you,” Brenya said. “If you are going to go to the bank and take a large sum of money, then make sure you have another person with you to be the extra set of eyes, and to be aware of your surroundings.”

Community member Major Dixon was concerned by what happened.

“The bank should have done a better job to protect her,” Dixon said. “I think they should have done better to protect her. I think they should have escorted her to the car.”

Another man, Keith Stanley, was also concerned by the incident.

“She is an automatic target when she comes out of that bank, especially if anyone is in line with her,” Stanley said. “They could automatically come and wait for her if they are interested in taking her money.”

That is exactly what happened.

In a statement, Wells Fargo said safety was their biggest concern.

“Wells Fargo is aware of the incident, and our top concern is the safety and well-being of our customer,” according to the statement from the bank. “We are fully cooperating with the authorities in their ongoing investigations and are referring all questions to the Virginia Beach Police Department.”
