Police said a home invasion took place in Wakefield on Sunday, March 17.
They said the break-in took place at around 1 p.m. when two unidentified males entered an unlocked front door of a residence in the vicinity of 4349 Gunther Avenue and Barnes Avenue, armed with guns.
They said the two demanded that all occupants (a 19-year-old woman, a 50-year-old woman, and a 25-year-old man) move to the back area of the apartment and later stole three cell phones, one chain, and around $360 in cash from the home.
They said no injuries were reported by the victims, there were no arrests and the investigation remains ongoing.

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students.
