Houston Texan Bound During Home Invasion


FORT BEND COUNTY, Texas -- A Houston Texans cornerback was bound with tape during a robbery at his home, KPRC Local 2 reported Monday.

Fort Bend County sheriff's deputies said two men broke into Dunta Robinson's home at about 8 p.m. Saturday.

The men got into the home through an unlocked door, officials said.


One of the men went into the living room and ordered Robinson to the ground at gunpoint, investigators said.

Detectives said the second man searched the house while the first man tied Robinson up with duct tape.

The men got away with several pieces of jewelry, officials said.

The first man was black, 5 feet 8 inches tall and 160 pounds. He was last seen wearing a white T-shirt and red shorts.

The second man was black, 5 feet 7 inches tall and 140 pounds. He was last seen wearing dark gray sweatpants and a gray T-shirt.

Investigators said both men wore Los Angeles Dodgers caps and red bandanas that covered their faces.

The Houston Texans selected Robinson as the 10th overall pick in the 2004 NFL Draft and he was named Defensive Rookie of the Year by Pro Football Weekly magazine. He has started as right or left cornerback every game he has played in a Texans uniform.

Robinson played college football at the University of South Carolina, where he earned defensive most valuable player honors as a senior.
