DO YOU KNOW THEM? Moments after they stole a man's vehicle, police tried to stop them for speeding, but they ditched the vehicle and ran off on foot.

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- The Houston Police Department's Robbery Division is asking for the public's help in identifying the suspects who robbed a customer at a Burger King drive-thru.



Police just released surveillance video from the incident that occurred last month in the 9000 block of Clinton Drive.



The victim told police that two suspects suddenly approached his vehicle while at the drive-thru. One of the suspects pointed a handgun at the man while demanding that he get out of his vehicle.





Video shows the victim complying and the suspects then speeding off in his vehicle.



Moments later, police found the car speeding in the 11000 block of the Eastex Freeway and tried to perform a traffic stop. The suspects refused to stop, exited the vehicle and ran off on foot.



Police said they were unable to locate the suspects after that.
