Home Invasion Suspects Sought

Deputies are looking for three suspects who forced their way into a Bradenton home, stole valuables and then fled early Saturday morning, according to the Manatee County Sheriff's Office.

The men wore masks and were armed, when they forced their way into the back of a house near the 5000 block of 5th Street East at around 2 a.m., according to investigators.

The occupants, two women and a seven-month old baby, had been sleeping, according to sheriff's officials. They were not harmed.

Deputies and a K-9 unit were able to find some of the stolen items but were unable to track down the suspects.
