ALOHA, Ore. (AP) — Sheriff's deputies say a real estate agent working late in the model home of a subdivision in Aloha was tied up and robbed of her ATM card.

The Washington County deputies say the real estate agent told them early Tuesday the armed robber accosted her as she was leaving.

She told them the robber tied her hands behind her back, took the card from her purse, got the PIN number from her and then duct-taped her mouth.

The card was later retrieved from an ATM machine. Detectives say photos show a man with something covering his face looking into the machine or trying to retrieve something from it.

They say she managed to get free, suffering minor injuries, and then called 911.
