Greatwood man, daughter robbed at Gunpoint

Another driveway robbery has taken place in Fort Bend County, this time in the Greatwood area just outside of the Sugar Land city limits.

The man told Fort Bend County Sheriff's investigators that he and his daughter were approached in their driveway by a man with a gun.

The robber told them to shut up and asked what was in a grocery bag the man was carrying, according to a news release issued this afternoon by the sheriff's office.

"The victim threw the bag of groceries and his wallet out into the driveway hoping this would keep the robber away from him and his daughter," the release states.

The robber ordered the man to lie on the driveway while he went through the grocery items and the man's pockets, taking the house and car keys. During this time, the man's daughter was hiding behind a nearby fence.

At some point, the robber hit the man in the head and face with the gun and told him to shut up.

"The victim stated that the suspect walked through the privacy gate and was apparently going to make entry into the residence through the rear door, but was scared away by a barking dog inside the residence," the release states.

When the robber spotted the girl behind the fence, he threatened to kill her if she did not remain quiet. He also threatend to shoot the dog.

After the robber fled, police were called. The robber is described as being black, between 16 and 25 years old, 6 feet 2 inches to 6 feet 4 inches tall, and having an athletic build.

The pants he was wearing had a single stripe running down the pant leg.
