The Texas Rangers are seeking two men who kidnapped a woman at gunpoint Tuesday night from the parking lot of her East Montgomery County apartment and forced her to withdraw money from her bank.
The Rangers believe the kidnapping and robbery may be related to two similar robberies in the Atascocita area of Harris County.
The woman was unharmed, a Montgomery County Sheriff's Office press release states.
Around 11:45 PM Wednesday, the 24-year-old woman was returning home and was walking from the parking lot to her apartment building, located somewhere near Community Drive in New Caney, when two black men confronted her and took her at gunpoint in her car to a bank drive thru on FM 1960, MCSO Lt. Dan Norris said.
There, one of the men covered his face with a bandana and, using the victim's ATM card and PIN, withdrew money from the victim's bank account.
The suspects drove the victim to a remote area of a nearby parking lot and walked away, leaving the victim unharmed in her vehicle.
The men fled in a dark colored small sport utility vehicle that was waiting for them, with a third suspect driving. The victim then contacted local police authorities, the release states.
One of the men is described as a black male, approximately 5 feet, 6 inches tall and in his early 20s, wearing a navy blue baseball cap bearing a Cleveland Indians logo, a navy blue polo shirt with baggie jeans and black Nike Jordan shoes with silver on top.
The second man, also black, is described as approximately 6 feet tall and with a thin build, in his early 20s and wearing a red shirt and red
baseball cap.
The Texas Rangers have been investigating this case and they believe two similar robberies in the Atascocita area on FM 1960 may be related.
