Two northwest Indiana men were charged Monday with burglarizing a home in Gary.

Jackson is also charged with a felony count of intimidation for threatening a police officer and his family, according to the statement.
On Nov. 10, police responded to a report of a residential alarm in the 100 block of East 36th Avenue. Officers saw three men on the scene, two of which fled on foot and were later arrested, according to the statement.
