Police previously arrested 28-year-old Manuel Hernandez-Hernandez in connection to the case.

All four suspects are from Venezuela and are on immigration hold.

The court documents named two other men who are not in custody.

Dallas *** ******** tight-lipped about the investigation. It’s still unclear why the woman was targeted.

What happened?

After his arrest this week, Hernandez-Hernandez admitted to committing the robbery and gave police the nicknames of the other suspects in the case. He told police he did not know the other men’s full names, according to an arrest warrant affidavit.

Hernandez-Hernandez told police he had received a

message asking to meet up with a man he knew as “Cuma” from an Irving apartment.

An arrest warrant affidavit says that Hernandez-Hernandez got into a ****** SUV with four other men.

“[Hernandez-Hernandez] believed they were going to get money owed by a *********** because he was aware ‘Cuma’ and the other suspects were involved in **** trafficking,” reads an affidavit.

The vehicle drove to Northwest Dallas, where the men allegedly attacked a woman in her driveway.

According to the documents, Hernandez-Hernandez watched two of the men go inside the Northwest Dallas home and eventually signaled for the rest of the men to go inside the home.

Hernandez-Hernandez says he saw the woman sitting in the living room while two of the men pointed guns at her.

The Spanish-speaking men communicated with the woman through

Translate as they robbed her home, according to the document.

The woman told police the men hit her on the head with a **** and threatened to cut off her fingers if she didn’t comply.

Police say the men made off with $75,000 in jewelry, a Gucci purse, a Ferragamo handbag, a Judith Leiber handbag, the woman’s phone and several coins from a wooden box.

A fingerprint on the box eventually led police back to Hernandez-Hernandez.

Coincidentally, Hernandez-Hernandez was arrested by Colleyville police on Sept. 19 and released the day before the robbery.

Police say the 28-year-old had a defective brake light, no driver’s license, no insurance, no vehicle registration and was in possession of ***** paraphernalia.

Dallas police used info from his previous arrest to locate Hernández-Hernandez at his apartment in Hurst.

The Venezuelan Gang Connection

After Hernandez-Hernandez was arrested, he told Dallas Police that the other men were a part of the El Anti-Tren ********* street gang. He also said he was paid $150 for his role in the robbery.

FOX 4 previously asked Dallas Police about the possible gang connections of the men.

“There is no evidence at this time to indicate that Hernandez-Hernandez is a member of the Tren de Aragua gang from Venezuela,” Dallas Police responded.

When FOX 4 asked Dallas Police about the possible gang connection of the other suspects after the release of new affidavits on Friday afternoon, Dallas police said they had given over all available information at this time.

Court records show all four suspects are in the country illegally. They are being held at the Dallas County Jail on an immigration hold.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement tells FOX 4 the suspects are from Venezuela.
