Two brothers who kidnapped a couple and forced the wife to help them rob the bank where she worked got a lethal dose of Texas justice last week.
Police say the husband shot his abductors following the robbery, killing one of them and wounding the other.
The Colorado County Sheriff’s office isn’t releasing the names of the victims due to the ongoing investigation, but a police statement obtained by The Huffington Post details the couple’s harrowing ordeal.
Police believe the suspects knew that the wife worked at the bank, but the victims did not know the suspects, Sheriff’s spokesman Sgt. Andrew Weido told KHOU.
The suspects returned to the house and made the husband drive them south in his truck, but the man managed to get a hold of his personal firearm in the vehicle.
