Identity Sought of Suspects in North Houston Robbery

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 Saturday, June 15, 2019 at 10:20 pm, the complainant arrived at the Casa De Leon restaurant, located at 9217 Long Point, in Houston, Texas. As the complainant was exiting his vehicle (brown Chevrolet Silverado truck) , an unknown female approached him and pushed a knife up to his side while an unknown male pointed a handgun at him and told him to get into the backseat of his truck. The complainant stated that he complied and the male and got into the backseat with him while continuing to point the gun at him. The female got into the driver’s seat and drove the victim’s truck to a nearby apartment complex. The male suspect then opened the door to the truck and pushed the complainant out, causing him to fall to the ground. As the suspect drove off in the victim’s truck, the suspect fired two gunshots, but the victim was unsure if they were towards him. During the incident, the complainant was able to get a good look at the female, but avoided eye contact with the male.

The victim’s vehicle was located the next day at Yupondale and Elmview at around 11 am with 12 bullet holes and 13 bullet casings around the vehicle.
