DALE CITY, Va. — A woman claiming to know a resident of a Dale City home led to a robbery and home invasion on Monday.
The woman knocked on the door of the home in the 3800 block of Corona Lane in Dale City at 10:21 p.m. She said she knew someone who lived inside, and once she was let by the person who answered the door, two men appeared behind her and forced their way inside. One of the men showed a handgun and demanded cash, said Prince William police spokesman Jonathan Perok.
While inside the home, the armed gunman fired a bullet into a wall but no injuries were reported. The trio got away with jewelry, a laptop, and cash before fleeing the scene, said Perok.
The incident does not appear to be a random crime, he added.
The woman was described as black, between 16 and 20 years old, 5 feet 1 inch tall, with a medium build, shoulder-length black hair, and brown eyes. He was wearing a black jacket.
The other two men that were with here were also black, and a description for the armed man was provided in a report – a man 18 between 18 and 20-years-old, 5 feet 1 inch tall, with a thin build, short black hair, brown eyes, wearing all black clothes.
