MASKED men carrying a firearm burst into a house in Robroyston and threatened its occupants with the weapon.

The raid happened on Pinwherry Drive last night with the gang ransacking the house. 

Inside, the occupants - two women aged 47 and 19, and a man, 26 - were threatened with what is believed to be a firearm.

The men, who were all in dark clothing, raided the house before bolting from the scene in a dark-coloured Audi.

The attack happened at around 11.45pm.

Cops believe another Audi was close to the property as well, and a further three men were seen at that car.

The gang then fled the area and the direction in which they drove is unknown.

The firearm was not discharged and cops have sealed off the street surrounding the home as they start their investigation today.

Two men were described as both slim build. One was 6ft and the other 5ft 6 inches.

Police Scotland said: "Enquiries are ongoing."
