The incident happened shortly before 1 p.m. Monday, at a residence on Barren Hollow Road in Hurricane Mills. Officials said three suspects, described as white males, were seen on security cameras.

A new PS4 game system, jewelry and a blue urn that contained the ashes of a deceased family member were stolen from the home.
