Police searching for three men wanted for aggravated robbery

El Paso police officers are searching for three men they believe confronted a woman at gunpoint at an eastside hospital.

Police did not say when the incident happened, only saying that a woman called 911 to report the incident, which happened at Del Sol Medical Center.

Emergency radio transmissions shortly before 8:30 a.m. Wednesday indicated that law enforcement helicopters were flying around the hospital, which is at 10301 Gateway Boulevard West.

Investigators believe this incident is related to two earlier aggravated robberies, but police did not elaborate on when or where those incidents happened in the text message sent to the local media.

Police offered what they’re calling a “vague” description of the three suspects: two of the men are Hispanic, one is black. They were seen armed with one or more guns and a machete. They were seen driving in a black compact car, possibly a Kia.
