In at least two incidents, the victims were sexually assaulted. A lengthy investigation by the HPD Robbery Division, along with the MIssouri City, Pasadena, and Sugar Land Police Departments, along with the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, determined the suspects were involved in multiple robberies in the Houston, Missouri City, Pasadena, Sugar Land and Montgomery County areas.
