Resume:

State Police are investigating a home invasion that occurred at a Georgetown mobile home park.

The incident occurred in the early morning hours on Thursday when a 39 year-old male resident went outside to start his truck. The 39 year-old is a commercial tractor trailer driver. When the male exited his truck he was confronted by three male suspects. They demanded money, which the victim complied and turned over his wallet to them. The suspects were upset with the lack of money in the wallet and forced the man back to his home. The victim had inadvertently locked the door when he left to start his truck. The suspects made the victim knock on the door until one of his sons answered. The suspects forced their way in and went through the home and ordered all the occupants into the living room area. Once everyone was gathered in the room the three went through the clothing of the victim and his 39 year-old wife.

In addition to the husband and wife, their 19 and 18 year-old sons were also forced into the living room along with a 15 year-old boy who was friends with one of the sons. There was also a small child in the home who was never woke up during the incident.

The sons were ordered to remove electronic devices throughout the home such as a Wii, a computer and game cartridges. The suspects also gathered up some cash they found.

The suspects then fled the home on foot. It is unknown if a vehicle was used in their get-a-way.
