Real estate agent tied up, robbed
GREENSBORO — A real estate agent was robbed and tied up by two men this past weekend.
The Guilford County Sheriff's Office said a man entered the Allen Tate real estate office at 954 Golf House Road West in eastern Guilford County at 11:30 a.m. Saturday. The man inquired about homes in the Stoney Creek area, then became loud and tried to grab the agent by the arm. The man pulled out a gun, and a second suspect entered the business.
The sheriff's office said the two suspects tied up the agent and locked her in a restroom. The victim, whom the sheriff's office did not identify, was discovered later by a cleaning person who called deputies. Paramedics treated the agent for minor undisclosed injuries.
Deputies said the suspects took the agent's cell phone, computer and ATM cards. The ATM card has been used at two different locations since the robbery. The sheriff's office did not identify those locations.
The sheriff's office did not describe the suspects, although it released a picture of one Tuesday using a stolen bank card at an ATM machine.
Anyone with information about the incident can call Det. G.R. Moore at 641-5940 or Crime Stoppers at 373-1000.
