Home invasion investigated in Milford

State Police in Delaware are investigating an early morning home invasion that occurred on the 10000 block of Rust Road on Friday.

Troopers say an armed suspect entered the back door of the home and threatened a 62-year-old male and his 48-year-old wife. At this point, the couple, along with a 28-year-old male resident of the home, fled to the master bedroom and contacted police.

Once officers arrived, they reportedly found no sign of the suspect. The victims were unharmed.

Police describe the suspect as a black male, 20-30 years of age, 5’09” – 5’10”, 160-165 lbs., wearing a grey hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans, and a red mask over his face.
