A gunman angered over the loss of his home tied up a legal secretary and stole her car today.

The gunman entered a lawyer’s office in Ocala, Fla., and told the 64-year-old secretary who greeted him that her boss had taken his home in a foreclosure, the Ocala Star-Banner reports.

Attorney John Trentelman arrived at the office about 40 minutes later and found his secretary bound and gagged. She said the gunman had taken her purse and car.
