Couple assaulted during Lake Stevens home invasion

LAKE STEVENS — A husband and wife in their 70s were assaulted Thursday morning in a home-invasion robbery here.

Police are working on developing suspect information, according to a news release.

The robbery was reported just before 5:30 a.m. at an apartment in the Ashley Pointe senior living community on 20th Street NE.

Three suspects rang the doorbell, then forced their way in when the door was opened. The 71-year-old woman was knocked to the floor. The 77-year-old man was punched. The suspects stole jewelry and electronics.

The suspected are believed to be a woman and two men, all white, who wore gloves and had their faces covered, according to the release.

They were traveling in what appeared to be a mid-1990s model Cadillac de Ville that was silver or gold. The car has a dent on the trunk lid. While driving off, the suspects hit a roundabout and left behind a hub cap.

Anyone with information is asked to call detectives at 425-334-9537. Anonymous tips also can be left at 425-377-3214.
