Police seek 3 in DeKalb home invasion, robbery

Clarkston police are seeking three men in connection with a home invasion and robbery in which a man was beaten and a teenage girl was sexually battered.

About midnight Jan. 26, the men, who were armed with various firearms, forced their way into a residence at the Portofino Apartments in the 1200 block of Brockett Road, Det. Jasond Elliott said. A man and two juvenile girls, one of whom slept through the incident, were in the home at the time.

Once in the apartment, the men demanded cash and wanted to know where the safe was, Elliott said.

During the incident, the intruders battered the man and sexually battered a 16-year-old girl, Elliott said.

Police have distributed sketches of two of the men they are seeking.

Anyone with information is asked to call police at 404-292-9465 or 678-258-5630.
