Police say that Two men forced their way into the home of an
elderly Glencoe couple Wednesday night, demanding money.
The suspects got away with the woman’s purse, and
fortunately, no one was injured.
Police say the two suspects described as black males in
their late teens or early 20s knocked on the door of the Lay Avenue residence
between 8:30 p.m. and 8:45 p.m. Wednesday evening.
They told the residents their car had broken down and asked
to use a phone.
When the man unlocked the door to hand the phone through it
to the young men, they forced their way inside and pushed the man down.
One suspect brandished a revolver and kept the man and woman
at gunpoint while the other rummaged through their house.
When he found the woman’s purse, they took it and fled on
foot.
Police believe the two went through some backyards.
Police continue to develop leads and are keeping up with
reports of recent robberies in Gadsden for possible connections.
The couple told police the robbers wore dark clothing, but
they didn’t wear masks or cover their faces.
