Home Invasion Robbery Victims Held at Gunpoint, Escape by Jumping Out of Second-Floor Window

The residents said the alleged robbers took them to an upstairs bedroom where they were forced to lie face down on the floor while one man pointed a gun at them.

Three people survived an armed home invasion robbery by jumping out of a window on the second floor of their home Friday night, police said. 

Arcadia Police responded to the 600 block of West Lemon Avenue just before 11 p.m. to investigate sounds of a male and female screaming for help.

The residents told police that three men entered the home through an unlocked rear window, one of whom was armed with a dark-colored handgun.

The residents said the alleged robbers took them to an upstairs bedroom where they were forced to lie face down on the floor while one man pointed a gun at them. The other two alleged robbers ransacked the home.

When the armed robber was not watching, the victims ran to the window, pushed out the screen, jumped onto the roof and then jumped to the front yard where they began screaming for help.

Two of the victims were taken to the hospital after sustaining injuries from the jump.

The three men suspected of robbing the home have not been located. The victims described two of the men as adult males, one wearing a black hoodie and the other wearing a red hoodie.

Anyone with information is asked to call Arcadia Police a 626-574-5150.
