Police yesterday said that they are making progress regarding an armed robbery last week at a mansion in Kaohsiung’s Niaosung District (鳥松), during which four people were tied up while the assailants ransacked the house.

The mansion belongs to the family of Kao Ying-shih (高英士), founder and former chairman of Eternal Materials Co (長興材料), one of the nation’s leading chemical suppliers for the electronics, biomedical and plastics industries.

Kao, who is in his 80s, was not home when the crime took place.

On Thursday afternoon, two masked assailants with handguns grabbed two gardeners working outside and forced their way into the home, said Chen Jung-hui (陳榮輝), an investigator assigned to the case.
