Police are seeking three men who allegedly overpowered a man at gunpoint inside his Norcross residence and took credit cards, cash and other items.
About 1:30 a.m. June 9, the men, all wearing masks, kicked in the front door of an apartment in the 1300 block of Graves Road, Gwinnett police spokesman Cpl. Deon Washington said. Two of the men had handguns.
The resident, who had gotten out of bed to investigate a loud noise at his front door, ran back into his bedroom with his girlfriend and tried to hold the bedroom door closed, Washington said.
The men overpowered the victim, and made off with more than $200 in cash, credit cards, an Xbox, and a cellphone, Washington said. Hours later, a credit card was used at a Wal-Mart.
Police described the men as:
— about 5-foot-6, weighing 140 pounds, wearing a mask with a skull, a dark hoodie, and dark slacks;
— about 6 feet, weighing 160 pounds, wearing a blue mask, a dark hoodie, and dark slacks;
— about 6 feet, 160 pounds, wearing a blue mask, a dark hoodie, and dark slacks.
