Police are searching for two introducers who broke into an art museum and used a motorboat to escape. The incident occurred at the Bayou Bend Museum on Memorial Drive around 6:45 p.m. Tuesday night. “I’ve seen alligators in this creek and snakes and stuff that’s risking it right there,” resident Matthew McElroy said. The Museum of Fine Arts Houston, which runs the Bayou Bend Museum, said no one was harmed and no works of art were damaged.

Sara Florida said on Jan. 13 they were notified by neighbors that several people were breaking in and stealing items from their house. She said the intruders took about $35,000 worth of equipment stored inside the home, which is currently being remodeled. The family reported the problem to the Houston Police Department, who were able to arrest a woman found inside. They plan to turn that video over to HPD later this week once an investigator is assigned to their case.
