SUGAR LAND, Texas (KTRK) -- The Sugar Land Police Department released a new surveillance video Wednesday morning showing a person of interest wanted in the theft from an armored truck employee outside an H-E-B.

Authorities are asking for the public's help in identifying the person in the video.

The incident unfolded at about 12:10 p.m. Tuesday at the grocery store on University Boulevard and Highway 6.

The police department said a suspect stole a bag of cash from a security officer and took off. That's when SLPD said the officer fired at the suspect vehicle at least twice, hitting it.

Police said the suspect vehicle had been found. At the time, Sugar Land PD said two suspects were wanted after witnesses reported seeing two men where the vehicle was dropped off.

Authorities didn't mention anything about two suspects in Wednesday's update but focused on the person of interest.
