HOUSTON (AP) - Police are appealing for public help in identifying and arresting two suspects in a string of five violent robberies in a five-hour period in southeastern Houston.

Police say the last three of the five victims were stabbed and all were beaten in the robberies at gun- and knifepoint between 6 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. Monday.

The final attack was captured on surveillance video, which is being shown to the public.

A Houston police spokesman said he had no information on the victims' conditions.
