COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- Colorado Springs Police officers arrested three men early Friday morning for burglary after finding them hiding in a car.

A nearby neighbor said two unknown men entered a house in the 1300 block of North Wahsatch Avenue through a window and began rummaging through the house. When officers arrived, two men dropped pillowcases full of items from the home and ran.

Officers chased the men but lost them.
