Feeling threatened for his life, he complied and handed over his black wallet, which contained the cash.

The suspect fled the scene through the same northern aluminum kitchen window they had accessed, which was found closed but unlocked.

According to reports a key had been carelessly left in the kitchen door, enabling easy entry for the intruder.

Law enforcement quickly launched a search for the suspect based on the victim’s description; however, their efforts were unsuccessful.

    These people don’t like their lives to be at peace. They love the thrill of being on the run or even so putting others at their mercy in life or death situations.

    Wait..did he come through the window or through the door in which a key had been carelessly left? Regardless, I hope s/he is caught and dealt with.

    The police need to put stricter measures in place to deal with these criminals. The criminals don’t want to work, instead they harass and steal from hardworking people. What a shame!!
