Armed Suspects Sought in Houston Pawn Shop Robbery


The Houston Police Department’s Robbery Division needs the public's assistance identifying the suspects responsible for an aggravated robbery. 

On Tuesday, August 13, 2024 at around 7:00 pm, an unknown male walked up to the entrance to a pawn shop at closing time at the 8700 block of Lugary, in Houston, Texas. One of the males first walked up to the front door while acting like a customer, which caused an employee to unlock the door, and was then joined by a second male wanting to pawn an item. While the employee was talking to the male, a third male forced his way into the pawn shop while telling everyone inside not to move or they would get shot. One of the suspects remained near the door while the other suspect removed money from the cash registers and various items inside the pawn shop. The suspects then fled in a small white hatchback, which was being driven by the third suspect. Houston PD #1154421-24
