A Tyrone man whose family was terrorised by a masked gang in their own home has been speaking to Q Radio about their ordeal.
 
Three brothers were bound with cable ties and then sprayed with detergent in an attempt to erase any fingerprints.
 
 
All are in their sixties and seventies and have asked not to be named.
 
They were retiring for the night when the attackers struck on theTattysallagh road in Omagh on Tuesday.
 
One of the brothers told us the gang members  bound all of them up with cable ties before ransacking the property and stealing a small sum of money.
 
He also says there was a similar type robbery in the area just a few months ago - though on that occasion a gun was used to threaten another householder.

The man's described the moment the masked men burst in.
