Slideshow: Salado home invasion
Three people are behind bars in connection to a Salado home invasion Thursday night.
Bell County Sheriff’s deputies were sent out to a call on the crime that happened on West Amity Road around 11:45 p.m.

After the suspects left, the victim was able to make it to a neighbor's house and call 911.
Salado police were in the area and were able to locate the suspects' vehicle at a nearby hotel.
