WYOMING, Mich. — The Wyoming Department of Public Safety is asking for the public’s help identifying a car used in a crime against an elderly couple.

The couple denied them entry but the men forced their way into the home an began walking room-to-room, looking for valuables, a news release said.

They’re described as white men about 25 to 30 years old, wearing masks.

The men left after the couple threatened to call police.

The incident happened July 11 and Wyoming police obtained photos of a possible suspect vehicle.

Anyone with information may call Wyoming police at 616-530-7300 or Silent Observer at 616-774-2345.
