Gaithersburg, Md. (AP) - There's been another home invasion in Montgomery
County.

This one happened Friday night at an apartment in the 500 block of South
Frederick Avenue in Gaithersburg. Montgomery County police say the apartment
was being used for prostitution.

At around ten p.m., as many as six men armed with a long gun and a knife
tied up two female prostitutes and one man in the apartment.

As other men arrived, they were beaten, tied up, and robbed.

Police say at first, the men gave false stories about what happened and
where, but all later admitted to being at the prostitution house.

One person suffered non-life threatening stab wounds, and is hospitalized.

The suspects are Hispanic males ranging in age from 17 to 30.

Last night the action seemed to be at Gaithersburg Square.  Five or six
units all gathered near the bank.  Around 6:30 pm (rough estimate).  Does
anyone know what was going on?
