Detectives seek help identifying serial robbers
HOUSTON
Detectives say they think the suspects are involved in a series of robberies in northeast Harris County. The latest attack occurred on November 3 at a gas station in the 17000 block of the East Freeway.
A 42-year-old was filling up his vehicle with gas when a black four-door car pulled up and a man got out, approached the victim and demanded his wallet. When the man refused to hand it over, the suspect hit him on the head and a short fight followed.
During the struggle, two other men – one armed with a gun – got out of the car and ganged up on the victim.
The suspects took the wallet and ran back into their car, where a fourth side was waiting behind the wheel. As the car sped off, one of the suspects fired a gunshot, which struck the victim's vehicle.
The suspects were described as Hispanic males between the ages of 18 and 27. They were wearing gray or light-colored hoodies. Their vehicle may have been a Toyota Camry.
Anyone with information regarding their identities is asked to contact Crime Stoppers at 713-222-8477.
