Issaquah police search for home invasion robbery suspects

NEW — 1:25 p.m. May 18, 2012

Issaquah police asked for assistance from the public Friday to find the suspects from a home invasion robbery.

Police said a white man and a black man forced themselves into a local apartment at about noon Wednesday. The woman inside the apartment said the white man stomped on her face and kicked her several times. The suspects asked her, “Where is it?” repeatedly as they ransacked the residence.

Police believe they searched the residence for narcotic medications. The suspects then fled the apartment on foot, carrying some of the woman’s prescription medication.

Police described the white man as 30 to 35, between 5 feet, 10 inches and 6 feet tall and 200 pounds. Police said he had unfinished sleeve tattoos on each arm. On one arm, he sported front-facing skull on top of the forearm and the outline of a woman — similar to the silhouette seen on tractor-trailer mud flaps — on the inside of the same forearm.
