Shots fired at robbery near campus

Police are searching for three suspects wanted in a shooting during a robbery at a Subway near the UH campus Wednesday.

According to KPRC, at least one shot was fired around 4:30 p.m. at the shopping center along Scott near Alabama, near the stadium construction.

An employee, who wasn’t working at the time, told KPRC the men threatened him with a gun and demanded he open the register.

One of the robbers fired a shot, but no injuries were reported.

The suspects escaped with an unknown amount of cash and an employee’s wallet.

Police said they recovered the getaway vehicle, a light blue van, about a half mile away, but the workers did not have a detailed description of the suspects, according to the Houston Chronicle.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
