WASHINGTON — Police are asking for the public's help identifying and locating multiple suspects wanted for breaking into someone's apartment in Southeast and threatening them. The entire ordeal was caught on camera.

On March 24, just before 5 p.m., investigators say a suspect forced their way inside someone's home and threatened them there. The other suspects remained outside the door. One suspect was armed with a gun. After the ordeal, the suspects ran away from the scene.

Security cameras inside the apartment complex shows all three suspects outside the victim's door talking. One man is seen drinking an unknown substance from a clear plastic cup. While the others chat, with their hoods up concealing their identities.

Anyone who can identify these suspects or has any information about this burglary should take no action but call police at (202) 727-9099 or text your tip to the Department's TEXT TIP LINE at 50411. The Metropolitan Police Department currently offers a reward of up to $10,000 to anyone who provides information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for a violent crime committed in the District of Columbia.

Video of the ordeal was released by the Metropolitan Police Department and can be seen below:
