Armed Man Threatens Elderly Woman in Driveway

Police said they need the public's help investigating an incident where a man pulled a gun on an elderly woman in her driveway Sept. 28.

North Richland Hills police said they responded to a 911 call about an aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in the 4300 block of Vance Road at about 7 a.m and found a distraught 86-year-old woman.

The woman walked out of her home to pick up her newspaper when two men began to approach her, according to police.

Police said the first man walked up to the woman, pointed a handgun at her and said, "I'll kill you." The woman immediately screamed and fell to the ground, which caused the two men to run.

Police described both men as black, in their mid-20s and between 5-feet, 9-inches and 6-feet tall.

The woman was not injured, according to police.

Officials with the North Richland Hills Police Department asked that anyone with information about this incident contact them at 817-427-7000.
