Texas woman robbed, pistol-whipped in ritzy Dallas area by illegal Venezuelan migrants with gang ties: report

After a Texas woman was tied up, robbed at gunpoint and pistol-whipped in her Dallas home in late September, multiple Venezuelan men have been arrested and charged in connection with the incident.

The robbery occurred around 10 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 21, after the woman returned from dinner to her home in Bluffview, a neighborhood in Dallas where the average home price is more than $880,000, according to Zillow.

The men are accused of targeting the woman in her driveway, forcing her into her home and tying her up while pointing guns at her head, according to police records obtained by FOX 4 Dallas-Fort Worth. The men allegedly hit her in the head with a gun and threatened to cut off her fingers.

The suspects allegedly used Google Translate to communicate with the victim and made off with $75,000 worth of jewelry, a Gucci purse, a Ferragamo handbag, a Judith Leiber handbag, the victim’s phone and coins from a wooden box, FOX 4 reported.

Dallas initially police linked Hernandez-Hernandez to the robbery after apparently finding his fingerprint on the wooden box from which the suspects allegedly stole several coins, according to FOX 4.

He allegedly admitted to the robbery and gave police the nicknames of the other suspects involved, but said he did not know their real names. One of the other suspects apparently contacted Hernandez-Hernandez via Facebook and asked him to meet up before the robbery occurred.

Hernandez-Hernandez further stated his belief that the other men were part of the El Anti-Tren criminal street gang, according to the documents obtained by FOX 4.

Dallas police did not confirm gang ties to Fox News Digital. The investigation remains ongoing.
