ALAMO — Two people armed with guns robbed a woman in the driveway of her home, authorities said.

According to Lee, the woman told sheriff’s deputies that as she exited her after parking in the garage, two people approached her and both had a gun.
The men took some of her belongings, including jewelry, and fled. The woman was not injured physically.
