Two men posing as postal workers robbed three teenagers at gunpoint in a north Jefferson County home on Tuesday, according to the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office.
One of the suspects knocked on the door of a home in the 6500 block of Telia Drive in the Pinson area around 2 p.m. May 29. Three teens, ages 16, 17 and 18, were at home in the residence. Their mother was away getting them something to eat when the robbery happened, Chief Deputy Randy Christian said in a release. The 17-year-old answered the door and saw a suspect dressed as a postal worker, wearing a uniform shirt and gray pants. The suspect told the teen he had a package to deliver and "motioned for a second black male suspect to come from the van," Christian said. Once the second suspect came to the doorway, he pulled out a handgun and both suspects forced their way inside the home. The other suspect grabbed a knife from the kitchen. The suspects forced the victims to lie down on the ground while they stole cash, electronics and took the victims' cell phones. No one was injured during the robbery. Christian says the suspects got away in a white minivan driven by a black female. Both suspects are described as black males between the ages of 20 and 25. Anyone with information about this case is asked to call the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office at 205-325-1450 or Crimestoppers at 205-254-7777.
