Residents in a quiet Reseda neighborhood are shaken after a home was broken into and a family was tied up and robbed by three men who disappeared.
The men, their faces covered with bandannas and sunglasses, were seen fleeing from the scene shortly after the 1 p.m. incident in the 19000 block of Runnymede Street, police said.
Police described the getaway vehicle as a black Lincoln town car or Ford Crown Victoria.
A family member said seven people were in the home at the time. The family owns a jewelry business and they believe that might be what the robbers were after.
No one was injured.Residents say this type of crime is unusual. Some have heard of burglaries and cars being broken into, but nothing like this.
"I'm sure my sister has anxiety right now," said Behrouz Nazeradl. "She cannot live anymore in this neighborhood."
