Police are looking for two suspects following an alleged home invasion-style robbery west of downtown.
Officers were called to a home on Upper Avenue at around 12:30 a.m. on Wednesday.
According to police, the adult residents were home when two men entered under the guise that they had a mutual friend. One of the suspects was armed with a gun and demanded money, police said.
When they weren’t able to get any cash, they fled the scene, officers said.
