Department’s Robbery Division need the public's assistance identifying the
suspects responsible for an aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon.
On Friday, August 25, 2017 at 7 am, two
black males entered the America’s Best Value Inn, located at 702 North Sam
Houston Parkway, in Houston, Texas. One of the suspects immediately jumped over
the counter and began to assault the front desk clerk by punching him in the
face. As the clerk was trying to protect himself, the suspect grabbed a glass
jar and hit the clerk in the head with it and then continued to assault him by
punching him. The suspect then grabbed the money from the cash drawer. During
this incident, another suspect pointed a handgun at the guests from the hotel (while
eating breakfast) and told them to remain quiet and then grabbed their cell
phones. The suspects then fled the hotel on foot. The front desk clerk
sustained injuries to his head and was taken to the hospital. HPD case #1074282-17
