HCSO Arrest Aggravated Robbery Suspects.

(Harris County, TX) Harris County Sheriff’s Office Robbery investigators have arrested a man and woman who robbed a game room on Sunday, November, 13, 2016 in west Harris County.

Investigators say that 31 year old Jorge Mejia and 31 year old Emmaly Harris posed as customers at the I Café game room in the 19100 block of w Little York for several hours.

When the business was ready to close the security guard was escorting Mejia and Harris out the front door, when Mejia pulled a handgun and attempted to re-enter the business.

The security guard tried to pull the door close, Mejia pushed a gun against the guard’s side.

The suspects walked the guard back to the office area where they told the manager and an attendant to put all the money in a backpack.

Mejia then duct taped the three employee’s hands and fled the business.

Harris was waiting in the getaway vehicle when District 4 deputies responded to the parking lot.

She was trying to drive away when deputies stopped her vehicle.

Mejia was running to the late model Chrysler 200, when deputies ordered him to the ground and recovered his handgun and the stolen money.

A second handgun was found under the driver seat when Harris was ordered by deputies to exit the car.

They are both charged with aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon and being held on $30,000 bond.
