OCSO SEARCHES FOR TWO IN HOME INVASION ROBBERY
The Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office is
searching for two men in connection with a home invasion armed robbery Saturday
evening, January 26th. A resident at 510 Union Street says two black
males carrying guns and wearing black ski masks entered her home around 6:30
p.m. after knocking on the door.
She says the pair took some money and other items. One robber hit her
with the butt of a gun. The woman also says one shot was fired inside the home
but no one was hit.
The Sheriff's Office quickly set up a perimeter in the area and brought
in a K-9 unit, but attempts to track the robbers were not successful.
