Speedway firefighters responding to a call for help just after 11am today found the 88 year old occupant of this apartment on 25th Street bound to his wheelchair.

Speedway Police Chief Jeff Dine said the suspects, 3 black males, made entry after removing the air conditioner from the window on the rear of the building and used duct tape to tie up the victim. The suspects gathered items in the apartment but were apparently scared off before they could take any of the items. Police are looking for a blue Pontiac the suspects left in.
