One arrested, two on the run in Missouri City robbery

MISSOURI CITY, TX On Saturday around 7:30pm, Fort Bend County Sheriff's deputies were dispatched to the Sienna Plantation Subdivision in reference to an aggravated robbery that took place in the 10 block of Bees Creek Knoll in Missouri City.

The preliminary investigation revealed three black male suspects armed with handguns forced their way into the residence after the homeowner responded to their knock on the door. The suspects demanded money and struggled with the 70-year-old victim, who suffered minor injuries. The suspects obtained an undisclosed amount of cash and fled.

After the robbery, a nearby witness observed one of the suspects jump a fence and provided a clothing description to deputies. While searching the area, a passing motorist flagged down deputies and informed them about the alleged suspect he witnessed running in the area of Old Woods Passage and Happy Hollow. Shortly thereafter, deputies located and detained the suspect for further investigation.
