ATLANTA - DeKalb police said five Emory University students were tied up and one injured when two masked gunmen walked into their house early Monday morning.

Police said the incident happened at 2:30am at a home in Merry Hills.

Police said the gunmen tied up the five students who lived at the home, then over the next three hours - stole televisions, laptops, cash and other items.

One of the students was injured when he was struck in the head by one of the gunmen.

After the suspects fled the scene, one of the victims untied himself and called 911 around 6am, police said.

Police said they think incident is not random and the gunmen may have been to the house before.

Police have no description of the gunmen.
