Thieves Raid Computer Store In Katy

KATY, TX — The Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office is seeking information concerning a group of men who stole computers in broad daylight.

At just after 1 p.m. on April 4, three black men walked into the Simply Mac store, in the 23500 block of Cinco Ranch Blvd., Katy, and stole seven computers while business was being conducted behind them.

Investigators said the men either cut or pulled the Mac computers fro the cords to free them from their counters and walked away.

The first suspect is has a medium build, short hair and was wearing a white t-shirt, blue jeans and white shoes.

The second suspect has a thin to medium build, a goatee, and was wearing a light-colored hat, red shirt, dark jacket, dark pants and black shoes.

The third suspect has a thin build, medium length hair and was wearing dark pants with a white stripe and a black shirt with a yellow stripe.

“This one is hard to take,” said Sheriff Troy Nehls. “Three guys walk into a computer store, yank the computers that are attached to counters and walk right out. And get this, there were customers and store personnel only a few feet from them. Fortunately, we have a good look at all three. Make that call to Crime Stoppers and earn some money.”

Anyone who has information on this crime or any other crimes is asked to call Fort Bend County Crime Stoppers, Inc., at (281) 342-TIPS (8477), send a text message: Text FBCCS plus your tip to CRIMES (274637), or submit a tip online http://www.fortbend.crimestoppersweb.com
