HOUSTON — Houston police are trying to track down suspects in two separate crimes at the same location. 

The most recent case happened on Oct. 25 at the convenience store in the 9400 block of Shady Drive in northeast Houston. 

An ATM technician was inside working on a machine when a masked man broke the window of his vehicle with a rock and grabbed an ATM cassette. The cassette was empty, according to the HPD Robbery Division.

Police released surveillance video of the robbery.
