HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Police need your help identifying three suspects who used a FedEx delivery driver disguise to rob a pharmacy at gunpoint.

According to Houston police, the suspects targeted a pharmacy in the 12000 block of Bissonnet on Oct. 19.

An employee said that a man who appeared to be a FedEx delivery driver entered the pharmacy carrying a box. The employee was unaware of any deliveries for the day, HPD said.

The employee took the box, but quickly realized it was empty.

The suspect reportedly told the employee he must have left the rest of the delivery in the truck, and asked the employee to follow him.

Then, the suspect motioned for two other men to enter the store, HPD said. Surveillance video of the incident shows the first suspect pull out a handgun and demand money and prescription drugs.
