HUDSON - Pasco County Sheriff's Office detectives are investigating a home-invasion robbery this morning during which masked men held guns to the heads of 6-month-old and 2-year-old children.

Three men broke a window to get into the home at 15509 Turtle Lane sometime before 9 a.m. and found several women and children inside, said sheriff's spokesman Kevin Doll. At some point the baby and toddler were grabbed while the intruders demanded money.

Guns were fired in the home to scare the residents, hitting at least one television, Doll said. Nobody was shot but one woman was injured.

"One of the women was battered," Doll said. I just don't know how bad."

The men fled with at least cash, the spokesman said.

When the men fled, someone at the home was able to get the tag number of their vehicle.

A man at the house hopped on a motorcycle and a followed the robbers but was stopped for speeding by a deputy who radioed for backup.

Hours later, two men were arrested and are in the process of being booked into the Land O' Lakes jail. A third man is still at large, Doll said.
