aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon. On Friday, August 20, 2021 at 10:17 am, the complainant was working inside his jewelry store, located at the 2900 block of Main, in Houston, Texas. The complainant stated that he observed a light colored Chevrolet pickup drive up on the side of his business and noticed two males exit the vehicle while wearing masks and at least one of them was armed with a handgun. The storeowner retrieved his handgun and as the males entered the store, he exchanged gunfire with the suspect armed with the gun. The suspects then retreated and ran out of the store.
