Early this morning on Sloat Avenue near the San Francisco Zoo, three men broke into the home of a family and robbed the place. The suspects tied up the occupants with electrical tape and then lifted their items -- around $5,000 in cash and jewelry. Fortunately, no one was injured or assaulted during the melee.

The three men, described by KRON 4 as "three African American men in masks," fled the scene. No arrests have been made.
