Legal Context
Under Texas law, aggravated robbery is elevated to a first-degree felony when the robber causes serious bodily injury, targets an elderly or disabled person, or “uses or exhibits a deadly weapon,” which brings significantly harsher penalties than a simple robbery charge. The offense is defined in Texas Penal Code §29.03.
The HPD Robbery Division is asking anyone who knows where Ferguson might be to contact the division directly or send an anonymous tip through Crime Stoppers.
