Gwinnett County police are trying to identify two men captured on surveillance footage burglarizing a Lawrenceville home.

The two men broke into the home on Chandler Drive around 11:30 a.m. on Feb. 27. One suspect wearing a gray jacket is seen walking through the house holding a gun, apparently checking whether anyone else was in the home, according to the police department.

The suspects “ransacked” the house, going through multiple rooms, police said. The suspects stole multiple video game consoles, a safe and a gun.

“The two suspects committed a very brazen act in broad daylight and we are thankful that no one was inside the home during the commission of this crime,” said Cpl. Wilbert Rundles, a Gwinnett County police spokesman.

Anyone with information on this case is asked to contact Gwinnett County detectives at 770-513-5300 or Crime Stoppers at 404-577-8477. Crime Stoppers tips may be rewarded with up to $2,000 if they lead to an arrest or indictment.
