PASADENA - Face masks replaced sombreros Friday as three Hispanic men held up South Texas Lumber in Pasadena escaping with an undisclosed amount of money.

Police say the men entered the store wearing ski masks, went to the cashier, and ordered him to lay on the floor while they robbed the office and took the wallet of the store owner.

One of the robbers was a Hispanic,5 feet 6 inches to 5 feet 8 inches tall, about 150-160 pounds, with a slender build, wearing a green jacket and black ski mask. He spoke only Spanish or Mexican.

The other robber was also a Hispanic, 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighing about 150-160 pounds, also a slender build and wearing a flannel jacket and orange ski mask.

The third robber was a Hispanic male, 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighing about 150-160 pounds.

The three may have made their getaway in a late model white Lincoln MK with dark windows.
