Overland Park police search for armed robbery suspects

Overland Park police were looking Sunday for two suspects after an armed robbery.

A resident living in the 7800 block of Foster Street opened his door at about 2:45 p.m. and encountered two men with handguns. They forced their way inside, taking the victim’s wallet and several electronic items before fleeing. They headed east on 78th Street in a silver, early 1990s car, either a Pontiac or Honda.

Authorities described the suspects as Hispanic males in their early 20s, both about 6 feet tall. One wore a red hat and a red jacket, while the other wore a black hat with a red jacket. They wore bandannas on their faces.

The victim was not injured.

Anyone with information is invited to contact the TIPS Hotline at 816 474-TIPS (8477).
