Stony Point Police responded to a home on Major Andre Drive on Friday, Oct. 12 at around 12:15 p.m. on a report of a home invasion robbery in which the caller reported a male broke into his home, threatened him with a knife and stole property from him.
The male resident gave 911 a description of the perpetrator and an officer spotted a male fitting the description walking on Filors Lane, just down the street from the caller’s home.
