Update: Masked Intruders Invaded Home, Robbed Video Game Players

Two women already inside the home as guests were part of the set up for the robbery, St. Louis County Police said.

Four people now have been charged with invading a North County home at about 7 p.m. Monday.

A teenager was at his home in the 15600 block of 94th Avenue in North County with several friends, playing video games when two masked men burst into the house.

One of the men was armed with a collapsible baton, forced five teens onto the floor and demanded money. The masked men ran from the residence after robbing the victims of items including money, cell phones, car keys, jewelry and video game equipment.
