Police are searching for two masked men who broke into a Hamden home Friday night, held the residents at gunpoint and stole valuables, including jewelry and electronics.
The men forced through a side door of a home on Newcastle Drive in Hamden around 8:30 p.m. July 17, according to police. Clad in dark-colored sweatshirts, masks and gloves, they held the residents at gunpoint and threatened to shoot them if they didn't cooperate.

A police K-9 tried unsuccessfully to track the perpetrators. Police are asking anyone with information to call Major Crimes Det. William Onofrio at 203-230-4040.
