The Dover Police Department is currently investigating a serious armed burglary that took place at a private residence located on Cherry Street in Dover, Delaware. The incident occurred on Wednesday night, prompting an active manhunt for the individual responsible. According to police reports, the suspect entered the home through an unsecured back door or window while four family members were present. Notably, a 15-year-old girl was sitting on a couch on the downstairs level at the time of the break-in. The intruder, described as a tall, thin Black male wearing all-black clothing and a mask, confronted the teenage victim and pointed a black handgun at her. He demanded money, but when the victim indicated she did not know what he was referring to, the suspect proceeded to steal several items. The stolen property includes an iPad, an iPhone, four bottles of medication, and a Nintendo Switch charging dock. After taking these items, the suspect fled through the back of the residence. During the incident, four other family members were asleep upstairs and were not directly confronted by the intruder. The suspect remains at large, and the investigation is ongoing. Authorities are urging anyone with information regarding the identity of the suspect or the location of the stolen goods to come forward. The Dover Police Department has established a tip line for public assistance. Residents are asked to contact the Dover Police Department directly at 302-736-7111 if they have any relevant information. Police continue to review evidence and interview witnesses as they work to locate the armed suspect and recover the stolen property.
