Two unidentified men invaded a Mayfair home, pistol-whipped the occupant and stole his wallet and cell phone on May 12, according to police.
The perpetrators remain at large, according to Lt. Dennis Rosenbaum of Northeast Detectives. Police were called to the crime scene on the 4300 block of Vista St. at about 1 a.m. There were no signs of forced entry into the house, but the victim — who was identified only as an adult male — reported that the crooks forced him into the basement, where they handcuffed him and beat him with a gun. The intruders ransacked the place and stole a wallet containing credit cards and an undisclosed amount of cash, along with a cell phone and a set of keys. The victim suffered minor injuries and was not hospitalized. Call Northeast Detectives at 215–686–3153 to report information. ••
