MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) – Police were looking for a gunman who broke into a home and held up the residents at gunpoint.

A resident reported he and his roommate were confronted Tuesday evening by a man carrying a gun and wearing a ski mask.

The resident reported the gunman ordered the roommate to tie up him up with duct tape and help find valuables. The resident got free, ran to a neighbor to call police, then returned and struggled with the gunman.

He said he ripped the ski mask and backpack away from the intruder.

The gunman got away and police say they recovered a gun outside the house.
