Sketch Released, 2 Suspects Sought In Southfield Home Invasion

SOUTHFIELD (WWJ) - Police are searching for two armed men who terrified a mother and her young daughter in their Southfield apartment last month.

The home invasion and attempted robbery took place shortly before 9 p.m. on Thursday, March 19, in the 28000 block of Franklin Rd.

According to police, the 25-year-old mom and her 6-year-old daughter were confronted in the hallway of their apartment complex by two unknown men brandishing handguns.
