Mableton Home Invasion: Cobb County Family Held at Gunpoint
Cobb County Family Held at Gunpoint, Home Ransacked

A Cobb County  family told police that four, possibly five masked men forced their way into the home on Collins Lake Way. They pulled a gun on the homeowners, ordered them to the ground and tied them up. Then, the group split up -- some moving through the house while the others kept an eye on the victims.

"They just said, 'Where's the money? Where's the money,'" said the homeowner.

The victims were held for some 40 minutes while the house was ransacked. The men made off with cash and jewelry.

Family members are shaken, but no one was hurt. There is no word on possible suspects in the case.
