Two masked gunmen held a woman and her two children at

gunpoint in their Perry home on Wednesday night.

 

According to Perry Police Capt. Heath Dykes around 10:40

p.m. at 115B Alice Drive, two black males approached the female victim as she

was trying to put a screen back on her window. Dykes said one of the men

pointed a shotgun in the victims face and told her to go inside the house. He

said the other man was holding a brick.

 

Dykes said once inside the home the two men demanded to know

where she “kept her stash.”

 

Police said the two men took several items from the home

before they fled on foot.

 

Dykes noted that the two took a blanket off of the back of

the couch and put the items in the blanket in order to carry them.

 

Police are still searching for the two masked men involved

in the home invasion.

 

One of the men is described as being six foot tall, weighing

around 150 pounds and being between the ages of 17-20. He was wearing a black

or dark hoodie and blue jeans.

 

The other suspect is described as a 5 foot 7 inch, young

black male weighing around 150 pounds. He was wearing a Warner Robins High

School sweatshirt.

 

Police are asking anyone with information regarding the

incident to call Det. Tom Daly at 478-988-2821.

 

No one was injured in the incident.
