Three Men Invade Home, Tie Up Lake Ridge Man
One man threatened the residents with a handgun.

On Aug. 13, a Lake Ridge resident was watching TV in his basement home in the 3800 block of Ogilvie Court when three men reportedly opened an unlocked rear sliding glass door and tied him up with an extension cord after threatening him with a handgun, according to police spokesperson Jonathan Perok.
The men took the 37-year-old man's keys before two of the men went upstairs to search the rest of the house. The other residents, both men, were in their own bedrooms on the upper floor of the house.
"The men ordered both of those residents to the ground and took an undisclosed amount of U.S. Currency from each of them," the police report read.
