EL PASO, Texas —

The woman who FBI investigators said pointed a gun at a bank teller was arrested. 

The Bank of America on Dyer Street in northeast El Paso was robbed Wednesday morning.

They said Solorzano was arrested Wednesday evening.

Investigators said they received numerous tips from the public, which helped them solve the robbery.

Solorzano is scheduled to appear in federal court.

She faces one count of armed bank robbery.
