Police Search For Two Suspects In Northwest Austin Home Invasion [VIDEO]

NORTH AUSTIN, TX -- Police continue to search for two men who dressed as municipal workers who robbed a woman inside of her Northwest Austin home Wednesday.

During a news conference, police said the men were dressed as construction or utility workers during the home invasion in the 6200 block of Ledge Mountain Drive in Northwest Austin at around 8:30 a.m. on Wednesday.

The woman was tied up after answering the doorbell as the men ransacked the house. Police said the men carried firearms and seemed to know what they were looking for inside the house. Police said the woman had recently had contractors upgrading her home, and the home invasion could somehow be connected to that work.

The victim was unharmed.

Police didn't have a very specific description of the men. They are described as standing at about 5' 5" tall and wearing dark clothes. The two men fled in an older model, white hatchback vehicle, according to police.
