Featured Robbery of the Week for April 30, 2018


Crime Stoppers and the Houston Police Department’s Robbery Division need the public's assistance identifying the suspects responsible for an aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon.

On Thursday, April 19, 2018 at around 11:38 pm, the victim, who owns a cab company, received a call for a cab ride at the 6400 block to Heffernan, in Houston, Harris County, Texas. An unknown white male and black female then entered the cab. Shortly after being picked up, the male sitting in the backseat began to strike the complainant in the head with a rubber mallet and then held the complainant by his hair while the female suspect jumped on the complainants lap and drove the vehicle to the Exclusive Palace Hall, located at 6811 Bellfort. The suspects parked behind the location and forced the complainant out of his cab.  The suspects both had guns and tried to force the complainant into the truck of his cab, but he was able to escape by running before the suspects forced him in the trunk.  The suspects then got into the cab and drove away.
