HOWE, Texas – The Howe Police Department is investigating the early Sunday morning burglary of Independent Financial Bank, 100 South Denny St.
At approximately 6:25 a.m., two men smashed the front glass door of the building and were in the building for less than two minutes. They left empty-handed and fled the scene in a white sports utility vehicle, possibly a Nissan Rogue, heading west toward U.S. Highway 75.
One of the men was a heavyset black male wearing black athletic clothing and a camouflage balaclava and face mask. The second suspect was a thin black male and wore a black hoodie and blue sweat pants. Both men were wearing gloves.
Approximately one hour before, these same men attempted to steal an ATM from the Credit Union Bank in Collinsville using a truck stolen from Tioga. The images are from the Collinsville investigation.
The Howe Police Department is working with the Collinsville Police Department and other law enforcement agencies to identify these individuals.
Anyone with information regarding these crimes is encouraged to contact Sergeant Keith Milks with the Howe Police Department at 903-532-9971.
