On Tuesday, March 1, 2016, at approximately 4:30 a.m., about 10 suspects broke into a gun store located in the 11800 block of South Wilcrest Drive in Houston, TX. The suspects used a chain tied to a pickup truck to pull off the front doors of the business. Upon entering the building, they ransacked the store causing extensive damage to the property.
