Thieves break into Houston art museum, get away on boat in bayou
FOX 26 Reporter Maria Salazar has more after two thieves broke into a Houston art museum then got away on a boat in the bayou.
HOUSTON - Two River Oaks museum intruders are on the run after escaping the grasp of Houston police by boat.
Police say they received a call about a burglary at the Rienzi, a branch of the Museum of Fine Arts Houston that features European decorative arts, around 7:30 p.m. Tuesday.
The Museum of Fine Arts Houston reports the two intruders, a man and a woman, entered Bayou Bend through a grate to a basement window on the north terrace of the house museum. When the burglar alarm rang, a security guard chased the pair, but they ran out the front door and into the woods towards Buffalo Bayou.
When police responded to the museum, they spotted the pair running out of the building.
Police say the suspects appeared to have a motor boat waiting for them in Buffalo Bayou, which borders the museum.
They took off down the bayou, but when they spotted officers on the Shepherd Drive bridge, the suspects turned around and went in the opposite direction, according to Lt. Larry Crowson.
