Teen held up during Hartly home invasion

Members of the Delaware State Police say they are looking for suspects that held a 15-year-old during a Tuesday night home invasion.

Troopers say the incident happened around 7:30 P.M. Tuesday along Pearsons Corner Road. According to police, a 15-year-old male answered the door and upon opening it, was confronted by a man with a handgun.

Troopers say the suspect forced the teen to the floor and covered his head with a blanket, while another suspect reportedly entered the house.

Police say the 15-year-old called police once the two suspects left, and reported the suspects took computer devices and a cell phone.

Troopers say one suspect was described as a black male wearing a black mask, jean jacket, gloves, and armed with an unknown type handgun.

No description was provided for the second suspect.

Investigators apparently do not believe the incident was random, and this home may have been targeted.

Anyone with information in reference to this incident, is asked to contact Detective M. Csapo at 302-698-8427, or by calling Delaware Crime Stoppers at 1-800-TIP-3333.
