ELMWOOD PARK, Wis. (WRJN) — Authorities in Racine County are on the hunt for two suspects involved in a home invasion Tuesday night in the Village of Elmwood Park. Racine County Sheriff’s deputies responded to a burglary in progress at approximately 8:37 p.m. in the 3400 block of N. Elmwood Dr.

When they got there, deputies discovered the one person living there had already ran off after encountering the intruders. Despite a thorough search of the residence and surrounding area, the suspects got away. They are described as two white males wearing black ski masks. One suspect is noted to have a tall, thin build with blue eyes, wearing a black hoodie and dark-colored jeans.

The Sheriff’s Criminal Investigation Bureau is actively investigating the incident and has increased patrols in the Elmwood Park area.
