Woman Is Beaten And Robbed By Three Men On Christmas Morning

HOUSTON, TX — A family that was robbed in their home at gunpoint early Christmas morning were likely not the only victims that encountered a trio of young robbers that morning, after a young woman claims three individuals pistol-whipped her and tried to force their way into her home.

The attack happened at about 4:15 a.m. at an apartment complex at Interstate 45 and Alameda-Genoa Road, less than a mile from where three men, all wearing hoodies, held a family at gunpoint and robbed them after waking them from a sound sleep.

The 26-year-old nursing student had just ended her shift and was unlocking the front door to her apartment when three young men wearing hoodies and holding guns surrounded her, she said.

She was terrified.

"I was outnumbered, there were three guys and one of me," she told KPRC.

The three young men demanded to be let inside her apartment.

She hadn’t unlocked her apartment yet and her parents were asleep inside, but instead of complying, she yanked the keys from the front door and dropped them on the ground, which angered the three men.

One of them grabbed her purse and cellphone and demanded once more to be let inside, and when she refuse he hit her several times with the butt of his weapon.

The woman suffered a gash to the top of her head and a broken finger on her right hand.

As she was laying on the ground, one of the men pointed his gun at her and threatened her before stealing her purse, cellphon,e and car.

Police have not said if the crimes were related.
