According to law enforcement sources, the home invasion occurred at 8:30 a.m. at a home on 90th Avenue.
Reportedly, the suspect- described as a 40-year-old black male standing 5’10”-tall and last seen wearing a dark sweatshirt, a dark jacket and gray pants-pushed his way through a basement door and confronted the male victim.
Authorities said threatened the victim by displaying a wrench, then removed $20 in cash, the victim’s debit card and a cell phone.
