Two out-of-state men were arrested and a third remains at large in connection with an armed home invasion in Lindenhurst, Suffolk police said Monday.
Twenty-five-year-old Lloyd Duncan, of North Carolina, and 25-year-old John Wilson, of South Carolina, were charged with first-degree burglary. Police said Duncan, Wilson and a third man kicked down the door of a 26-year-old female homeowner late Sunday night.
Suffolk Police Det. Lt. Gerrard Pelkofsky said the pair declined to speak with police, who are unsure of their connection to the house or its owner. It is also unclear what, if anything, was stolen, police said.
Neighbors told News 12 Long Island the area is not often subjected to similar types of events, and they believe the house was targeted.
Anyone with information on the case or the third suspect is asked to contact Suffolk Crime Stoppers at (800) 220-TIPS.
