Frank Cross talks to FOX 17's Meagan O' Halloran exclusively this morning.
Three armed suspects kicked in the back door of a home on the 400 block of Maple Street at around 12:30 a.m., according to Metro police.
Cross says the suspects pulled his girlfriend from the shower and put a gun to her head. There were also kids home sleeping at the time. They were all uninjured.
The suspects pistol whipped Cross who suffered a laceration to the head. He was transported to Skyline Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries. He said he is suffering from a concussion and had to get staples.
The suspects have not been caught. They got away with an undisclosed amount of money and prescription medicine from safes in the house. Cross says he believes this was an inside job and unrelated to his job.

Former Dyer County constable sentenced to prison
May 23, 2013 12:50 GMT
DYERSBURG, Tenn. (AP) -- Former Dyer County Constable Derick Shane Hundley has been sentenced to 25 years in federal prison.
The State Gazette (http://bit.ly/14UHydd ) reported Hundley was sentenced Monday after earlier entering a guilty plea to enticement of a minor through electronic means. The government dropped a child pornography count.
Prosecutors said Hundley, who is 30, used a cellphone to try to entice a minor female to have sex with him. Police arrested Hundley last July and found an external hard drive that contained numerous images of minors involved in sex. He resigned from the constable post he had won in 2010 after his arrest.
