Bail bondsman shot, wife struck with gun in front of their son during robbery outside NE Houston business, HPD says

HOUSTON – A surveillance video has been released of two robbery suspects who shot a bail bondsman and injured his wife in front of their son outside his business earlier this month, according to the Houston Police Department.

The aggravated robbery was reported on Oct. 12 around midnight outside the bail bond business, located in the 6900 block of Denison Street.

Police said the owner was leaving the business while his wife and son waited in the truck for him. As he was closing the gate, one of the suspects reportedly charged at him while pointing a gun. The owner attempted to run but was shot in the leg.

Police said the suspect then took his money and ran back to the get-away vehicle. As this was happening, the second suspect reportedly approached the family’s truck and demanded their money. He struck the owner’s wife in her face with his gun and snatched her purse.

Both suspects were seen fleeing in the get-away vehicle, described as a blue or green four-door sedan.
