Shortly after 6 a.m., Oswego police responded to a 911 call about a home invasion in the 300 block of Hemlock Lane.

The victims told police four men wearing masks broke into the home, brandishing handguns, and threatened a woman and five young men -- all 17 to 21 years old -- beating two of the victims.

Illinois State Police said investigators suspect the men might be headed to Chicago.
