INCIDENT-ARMED ROBBERY

On Friday night, at approximately 9:09pm Houma Police were dispatched to a lounge in the 100 block of Howard Avenue, in reference to an armed robbery complaint.

Upon arrival officers contacted a 22 year-old male victim who advised them that two male suspects robbed him at gunpoint outside of the lounge.

Officers learned the victim was at the lounge playing in a pool tournament. The victim went outside to take a break to get some fresh air when two male suspects approached him and brandished a gun demanding money.

The victim then gave them his wallet and one of the suspects grabbed his pool stick and struck him in the back with it while the other suspect punched him in the face. The suspects took the victim’s analog watch with a blue face, his burgundy pool stick with blue gems in it, his chase bank card, and his Samsung sliding phone model 8730 lime green in color. They then left the area on foot.

The victim’s lower back was injured due to the incident. Therefore, he went to the hospital for medical attention.

The suspects were both described as being black males approximately 5’ 7” tall, and between 115 to 130 pounds. The suspect with the gun had a circular pattern tattoo under his left eye, short twists in his hair, and was wearing a long white tee shirt, dark colored jeans, with white tennis shoes. The other suspect was wearing a long black tee shirt; light colored jeans, and black tennis shoes.

Officers patrolled the area and were unable to locate the suspects therefore anyone with information is asked to call Houma Police at 873-6371.
