Around 8:15 a.m. the victim arrived home at a house in the 2200 block of Kella Avenue, where the four robbers escorted him inside and identified themselves as working for a narcotics unit, according to a watch commander with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Industry station.
They held the man at gunpoint and searched the house for drugs and money.
They took $700 from the man before leaving.
