The second link was to the video. At the very end of the report, the reporter says they used guns in all of the robberies.Rex B wrote:Where did it say they were armed?
That does seem like something that should have been included in the article.

HOUSTON -- Serial robbers who hit fast-food restaurants and stores are also targeting the customers, KPRC Local 2 reported Friday.
Investigators said the crooks have already hit 11 times around the Houston area, mainly on the southwest side. They are not only targeting fast-food restaurants, they recently hit Ralston Liquor store on Hillcroft and O'Riley's Auto Parts on South Post Oak.
Police said the common denominator in all the robberies is one female. The men in the robberies change, but police said they believe she is the leader of the group.
"She kind of takes control of the scene and she directs others what to do and where to go," said officer John Varela.
In a surveillance video, all four crooks calmly walked inside a Whataburger on Telephone Road at around 8:45 p.m. on March 3. They wore hooded jackets and disguised themselves with bandanas. Police said in all the incidents, they demand money.
"They immediately take control of the scene and intimidate everyone so they can do their thing," said an unidentified investigator.
One robber even attacked a couple eating inside the restaurant. The video shows the crook forcing the customers on their knees. The customer then threw his wallet at the robber but the crook still hit the customer.
"These guys are getting more violent. They are not scared to rob the store when it has customers inside. That's really dangerous," said Varela.
Police said the woman wears dark jackets with white markings on the hood and down the sleeves. She also has scars on her face that appear to be acne scars.
If you have any information about the robberies, call Houston Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
