Suspects break in, steal medication from elderly couple

Monday, September 12, 2011

Delaware State Police are looking for a man and a woman who entered a home and stole medication from an elderly couple.

It happened Sunday about 8 p.m. in Dagsboro. Troopers say the suspects entered the home through an unlocked door.

The man, who was armed with what appeared to be a rifle, tied up a 78-year-old occupant of the home and demanded that the other occupant give him prescription medication.

Sometime later the suspects fled in a car.

The tied-up victim was injured, but declined treatment.
