The pair, who claimed to be carrying a firearm, forced their way in and demanded the homeowner's medications. The homeowner scared off the intruders and no medication was taken.

The first suspect was approximately 5'10" and 175 lbs, and was wearing a black long sleeve shirt, black pants, and shoes and gloves.

The second suspect is described as being 6'0", 175-180 lbs, and wearing the same clothing as the first suspect.
