Bloomington police are investigating a home-invasion robbery that occurred March 12 at a residence on the 9800 block of Fourth Avenue South.

Only one member of the household, an 18-year-old male, was home when three men burst through an unlocked back door at about 2:45 p.m., according to Bloomington Police reports.


This happened in the middle of the afternoon on a Wednesday. Lock your doors, folks.

The youth told police he didn't know any of his assailants.

Random?

If you know anything, let's get these thugs behind bars.

He described them as black men about 20 to 22 years old. The one with the handgun was said to be about 5-feet-10 and weigh about 230 pounds. He wore a dark green jacket.

The second robber was about 6-feet-2 and had a thin build, the teen told investigators. He wore a black windbreaker. The teen was unable to give a detailed description of the third man, but said he wore a gray jacket.

Ryan asked that anyone with information about the case phone Bloomington police at 952-563-4900.
