Tacoma police say gang members ransacked and tied up a 67-
year-old woman late Tuesday night in her home.

“The suspects took a 67-year-old female hostage and demanded
access to her bank card,” said Lt. Jerry Lerum with the
Tacoma Police Department.

Tacoma police say they’ve arrested one of the suspects, a
known gang member, but two are still on the run.

“That suspect is an active member of the Juggalos street
gang,” said Lerum.

Police said all the stolen items were recovered when the
suspects dropped backpacks they were carrying as K-9 units
pursued them.
