Police said three men entered the residence through the front door and confronted the occupants on the second floor, ordering them into a bedroom and holding them at gunpoint while the suspect removed property including wallets and an undisclosed amount of cash and illegal drugs. Allegations have surfaced that one of the victims allegedly sold drugs from the residence. The suspects then fled the residence in an unknown direction.

Police said one suspect is possibly named Rob. He is 21-22 years of age and about 5 feet, 10 inches tall with a thin build. He was wearing black jeans and a black hooded sweatshirt with a zipper and red lines. The second suspect, also 21-22 and armed with a silver semi-automatic handgun with a black grip, was about 5-9 and 220-230 pounds. He was wearing blue shorts with a gray stripe, a black T-shirt with cutoff sleeves and a black ski mask. The third suspect was 19-20 and 5-8 with a skinny build. He was wearing a long black T-shirt and had a white bandana over his face.

No one was injured in the incident, which was reported one hour after it occurred.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call Newark Police at (302) 366-7110, ext. 135, or Delaware Crime Stoppers at 1-800-TIP-3333.
