OUTLOOK, Wash. — Sheriff’s deputies are looking for three men who walked into an unlocked home, tied up a woman and held her family at gunpoint to steal money, jewelry and other items.
The armed robbery took place about 9 a.m. Sunday at a home in the 2000 block of North Outlook Road, according to a news release from the Yakima County Sheriff’s Office.
Authorities say three young men entered through an unlocked front door. Once inside, they tied up a 35-year-old woman, holding her and her 5- and 9-year old sons at gunpoint while demanding money and jewelry.
The men then went through the home, searching for items to take, according to the news release. The robbers did not enter a bedroom where the woman’s 12-year-old daughter slept.
Deputies say the men untied the woman before leaving. No arrests have been made but the investigators say they’re looking for a total of four men, including one who stayed outside near a vehicle during the robbery.
Anybody with information is asked to call the sheriff’s office at 509-574-2500.

Dream on Sheriff Ken. No matter how much you hope, the fallacy that you have depended on for informants will likely not happen - these people generally don't rat their buddies and countrymen out. Fear of retribution outweigh their sense of responsibility to help uphold law and order. The are laughing in your face.
That is what we get for allowing illegals to proliferate and remain here, thanks in part to your sanctuary policies of helping them "stay under the radar".
Your policy to ignore immigration status of these people is part of the problem, not that solution. You took an oath to uphold the law and keep us safe. You are failing in both.
Perhaps it is time to rethink your strategy before more people are hurt or killed by foreign interests in our valley.
And it is only going to get worse.........
Report Violationi dont remember reading about the men's ethnicity.
Report ViolationI'm sorry but NICK you really ate quite ill. "They're countrymen"? Are you serious? I'm telling you right now, I wouldn't care where the perps came from, I'd turn them In or shoot them myself if I had the right. Garbage is garbage regardless of color. If you have a gun or sit behind a computer typing rediculous statements. You really need some professional help.
Report ViolationOpps sorry, just found an typing error, i meant to type "THEIR". Wouldnt want NICK to blame my error on immigration or ethnicity.
Report ViolationAny body who steps through my door to harm or rob me will be sh$t in the face. Sooner or later the guys who did this will do it again. They will end up dead or eventually get caught and go to prison. Or they will just suffer in their own misery and sickness because they are drug addicts. God will be the final judge.
Report ViolationDo you guys remember the Skelton murders back in the early 1990s ? I was hired by the skelton family to move out the furniture and clean up the home so both of the familys would not see the bloodshed of their children and grandchildren.
The seen was horrific, two little gang members kicked down the door, beat to death the cripled dad and the 12 year old son in the living room, then went to the bathroom were the mom was taking a shower and stabed her to death,
and then with out pitty beat the 6 year old son to death
while hiding under the covers!!!
It is geting worse! and no one has the guts to say it mostly comes from the hispanic community!
