The Douglas County Sheriff's Office says a group of robbers stalked shoppers at a Walmart and then followed them home.
A 55-year-old mother and her 32-year-old daughter went to the store on Thornton Road late Monday to buy groceries late one night. Authorities say that surveillance footage shows three men spot the woman in the checkout line and follow them out to the parking lot.
The two women were accosted at gunpoint a short time later after arriving back at their house.
One man demanded the contents of the women's pockets, according to Douglas County Sheriff's investigator Trent Wilson. She didn't have anything in her pocket, so the man then took a purse and left the house.
The victims were not injured.
Authorities said they were concerned about the aggressive use of a gun. They believe the men may have been involved in other crimes.
Security has been increased at the parking lot.
Anyone with information on the case is urged to contact the Douglas County Sheriff's Office.
