Robbers take selfies before carjacking man who gave them a ride, Houston police say

HPD released surveillance video of the suspects posing for selfies and they're hoping someone will recognize them.

HOUSTON — Houston police are trying to identify three guys who they say stole a man's truck at gunpoint after he was kind enough to give them a ride.

The victim said he stopped at a convenience store on Bellfort in southwest Houston around 10:45 p.m. on Saturday, March 25. Three guys he'd seen around the area asked him for a ride to a nearby apartment complex.

When they arrived at the complex at 5050 Sunflower St., the man said all three guys pulled out guns and forced him to get out of the truck. They drove off in his 2002 black Ford Ranger, which still hasn't been recovered. 

HPD released surveillance video of the suspects posing for selfies and they're hoping someone will recognize them.  You can see them in the video below. 

The suspect in the red beanie was wearing an ankle monitor.
