HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Houston Police Department is investigating an armed robbery in southwest Houston near Harwin Drive.

A 19-year-old said he answered the door around 2pm when two men barged in and stole his mother's valuable purses and belts.

"One of them grabbed me by the collar, and the other one pulled out a gun and told me to get down, so I got down and then they duct taped me from behind and they pushed me on the floor," the victim said. "Then they proceeded to rob my house."

Home security video shows the two men walking out of the home and carrying a plastic bag. One man appears to be wearing plastic gloves.

HPD's Robbery Division is investigating.
