Deputies responding to the call about the home invasion and robbery were met with a hail of gunfire — at least 25 to 30 rounds. No one was injured.
The armed men escaped through the back door and are believed to have left in a white Jeep or SUV.
The Harris County SWAT team arrived to the scene and used a robot to search the house. Dozens of police officers from multiple agencies combed the area looking for the men, checking the nearby bayou with canines.
No one had been arrested as of 10 p.m.
