ROSS COUNTY, Ohio — The Ross County Sheriff’s Office is investigating an armed home invasion that took place on October 14 around 7:30 PM on Anderson Station Road.
According to the sheriff’s report, deputies were dispatched to the scene after receiving a call regarding the burglary. Upon arrival, they spoke with the victims who described a terrifying encounter with two armed men who forced their way into the residence.
The suspects, both wearing ski masks, were described as a heavyset white male and a skinny black male. The victims reported that the intruders ordered everyone to sit on the couch and threatened them at gunpoint, demanding money. After a tense standoff, the suspects fled the scene in what was reported to be a dark-colored Honda.
