Tracy L. Traver stood behind three men who forced their way into a man's home, beat him and stole two garbage bags filled with Christmas gifts from his living room floor, Hillsborough County deputies say.

The property the men took was worth less than $300, a criminal arrest affidavit states.

Deputies arrested Traver, a 35-year-old Tampa woman, at 7:17 p.m. Tuesday. They charged her with conspiracy to commit robbery-home invasion.

Traver knew the man beaten in Friday's home invasion in the 14300 block of Hensel Lane, the affidavit sates. He fought with her and one of the other men the day of the invasion, it says.

The man, who was beaten on his living room floor, opened his front door Friday after hearing a knock, sheriff's spokeswoman Debbie Carter said. He thought a friend was at his door.

Traver, of 1312 Morris Park, was in Orient Road Jail this morning. Her bail was set at $7,500.

The three men who beat him have not been found, Carter said.
