Boca Raton, FL – The Boca Post (BocaPost.com) — The Boca Raton Police Department responded to the 3000 block of NE 5th Drive in reference to a home invasion robbery after the fact.

A memo we received by the Boca Raton Police Department today reads:

“Boca Raton, FL – On Friday, December 10, 2021 at approximately 1:15 a.m., Boca Raton Police responded to the 3000 block of NE 5th Drive in reference to a home invasion robbery that just occurred. The victim advised he heard noises coming from the living room and when he went to investigate, he encountered two suspects who held him at gunpoint and demanded cash. The victim gave the suspects cash, but they demanded more and began ransacking the bedroom.

One of the suspects placed his hands on the victim’s wife, and a struggle ensued. At that time, both victims were punched repeatedly by the suspects, causing injuries. The suspects then fled through the rear of the residence with cash, a purse and various pieces of jewelry.

Two children were sleeping in their bedrooms at the time of the robbery and did not witness the incident.

The two suspects were described as black males, approx. 5’11”, wearing black masks. One
suspect was wearing a black hoodie and black pants. The other suspect was wearing a white shirt and had short curly hair.

If you have any information about this ongoing investigation, please contact Detective Scott Hanley at (561) 338-1344″
