WABASHA, Minn. – A Zumbro Falls woman was arrested and arraigned for a home invasion in which a couple was threatened with a gun, knife and a billy club in Lake City. Polly Marie Calhoun, 41, was charged with first-degree burglary with a dangerous weapon. A woman in a ski mask had held the man and woman in their house for 3-1/2 hours and demanded money. Eventually the woman got away with $400. Calhoun was arrested 19 miles away at her rural home near Zumbro Falls. Wabasha County deputies had gone to the house and found a straight-blade knife and a box for a police-style billy club. They also found clothes matching the description of what the Lake City intruder was wearing. “What about a ski mask?” the deputies asked. They said Calhoun pointed them to her car. Sure enough: They found a ski mask.
