A Tucson family on Saturday came home to find three armed robbers rummaging through their house.

Police say the family got to their home, in the 6400 block of North Calle Lottie near North First Avenue and East Orange Grove Road, at around 1:30 p.m. and found three men stealing their belongings. One of the suspected robbers fired his gun as he ran from the scene.

Police say they searched the area and arrested 21-year-old Christopher Rice in connection to the robbery. Rice is facing charges of armed robbery, aggravated robbery and first-degree burglary. He’s been booked in the local jail.

Police are still looking for two other men who were seen fleeing in a white luxury sedan.
