suspects responsible for an aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon.
On Saturday, May 9, 2020 at 7:00 pm, two
unknown males entered the Aldine Food Store, located at 195 Aldine Bender, in

walked up to the gaming machines. The male then pulled out a long metal prying
bar and started to pry open the machine in order to access the money drawer. While
this was happening, the employee saw what was happening and confronted the
suspect. The employee then grabbed the suspect and forced him out of the store.
The suspects then fled the location in a gray or silver four-door car. Houston
