Golden Valley Police Investigate Home Invasion, Stolen Bulldog Puppies

According to police, it happened Saturday evening at a home in the 6300 block of Medicine Lake Road.

Police say that group began tying up the family and demanding access to a safe.

Golden Valley police are investigating after a family was tied up and robbed in their home in the 6300 block of Medicine Lake Road on Saturday.

Police say the group of assailants made off with more than $100,000 worth of stolen goods including jewelry, gaming systems, purses, a 2019 Dodge Challenger and eight merle-coated American Bulldog puppies, valued at as much as $10,000 apiece.

“This isn’t’ something where people in the community need to be concerned about ‘Hey, will this happen to me?'” Chief Virgil Green said on Wednesday. “This is a pretty well isolated incident.”

Chief Green said officers had located the stolen car already and he felt confident they’d be able to track down those responsible very soon. He also said the suspects were captured on video by surveillance cameras at the home.
