Three men with shotguns robbed a Carrboro residence Wednesday night and made off with about $1,664 in stolen goods.
Reports state that the armed robbery occurred at 7:30 p.m. at 306 Estes Drive. The owner of the apartment, who reported the robbery at 1:13 p.m. Thursday, stated that her brother, her boyfriend and a third man were in the apartment at the time of the armed robbery. None of the victims were injured in the robbery.
Reports state that three males wearing T-shirts and shorts with red bandannas over their faces entered the residence with shotguns. The men entered the house and told the man in the living room to get on the floor. The men went to the bedroom, where the other victims were, reports state.
Reports also state that the woman who lives in the apartment told police that her brother punched one of the suspects in the nose when he came into the back room, causing him to bleed all over the apartment. After this short incident, the subjects told the two men to go into the living room and lie on the floor with the third victim.
The armed men took various items from the apartment, flipped over the beds in the apartment and left the area, reports state. It is not known why the incident was not reported until the following afternoon.
Lt. Jim Phillips said blood samples were taken at the scene. "We can use the blood sample to compare blood types with any suspects we get," he said. Phillips said police have no suspects or leads in the case.
