Constable deputies said they arrived at the scene within three minutes and evacuated the children safely from the home.
The suspect, identified as Jeremy Kejuan Wright, 20, was found inside the garage of the home and apprehended shortly after, Precinct 4 said.
Further investigation revealed Wright walked into the opened garage and demanded money from the homeowner, who was preparing her vehicle for work. When she told Wright that she did not have money, he demanded that she perform sexual acts on him while he had her at gunpoint, Precinct 4 said.
Wright was arrested and booked into Harris County Jail. He was charged with aggravated robbery and charges of aggravated sexual assault are pending, Constable Mark Herman said.
Wright’s court and bond information have not been set at this time.
