Polk County Sheriff's deputies are seeking information about an armed home invasion robbery that occurred on August 22, 2018, on 7th Place NW in Mulberry.
Just after midnight that morning, three unknown black male suspects kicked in the door to the home, and woke up the victims, demanding money. One of the suspects grabbed jewelry off of one of the victim's necks, and then battered the victim. After robbing the victims of an undisclosed amount of cash, the suspects fled the scene in an unknown direction. The victims believed at least one of the suspects was armed with a handgun.
The suspects' faces were not seen, but they are all three believed to be black males, approximately 6' tall, one wearing red sneakers, and one wearing a black T-shirt.
If anyone has information about this, they are urged to contact Detective Escheu at 863-298-6379.
