ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) - Police are looking for a man they say was involved in a violent home invasion.
Investigators say they've identified Raul Ortega, 21, as one of three men who broke into a house early this month.
The invaders bound the homeowner with duct tape and electrical cords, put a gun to his head, assaulted him and stole his debit card.
Police suspect Ortega was working with Joel Meeks, who's alleged to have been involved in a string of violent crimes that began in December.
Meeks, 19, was caught on Jan. 17 and remains in the Metropolitan Detention Center under a $500,000 cash bond.
