Suspect One is approximately 5-8, according to the release. He was wearing a black knit cap; sunglasses with large frames and a neck scarf pulled up to partially cover his face and mouth.

Suspect Two is described as white and between 5-6 and 5-9 with a buzz hair cut. He was wearing navy blue hospital scrubs, a surgical mask over his face which he pulled down across his throat, according to the release.

No sketch was released for the third suspect who is described as black and approximately 5-7 with a narrow face, according to the release. He either has short or no hair. He was wearing a black knit cap, beige or tan pants and a heavily used black leather jacket.

No one was harmed when the three men invaded the Deerfield home in the 700 block of Castlewood Lane March 19. The suspects fled when they learned one of the residents dialed 911, according to a March 19 news release from the Deerfield Police Department. 

The offenders entered the door through an open overhead garage door and an unlocked entry door into the house. Once in, they demanded money but quickly left the house when they learned 911 was called, according to the release. The release did not indicate if a weapon was used.
