Armed burglary in Melville

Four males, one armed with a rifle, broke into a Melville home and stole cash early this morning, Suffolk County Police said.

The four males forced open a sliding glass door at 1:30 a.m. on Tuckahoe Court, according to police, who said that once inside, the four confronted a male and female resident and demanded cash. They fled after receiving $300.

The suspects, believed to be in their 20s, wore dark clothing and their faces were covered with masks and hats. A dark colored vehicle, possibly a Honda CRX, was seen driving away from the area.

Police are asking anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-220-TIPS or Second Squad detectives at 631-854-8252.
