SPVM searching for home invasion suspects who posed as pizza delivery men

The Service de police de la Ville de Montréal  (SPVM) are seeking out the public to help identify two suspects who posed as pizza delivery men in order to commit a home invasion this past summer.

Authorities say the invasion took place at 7:45 pm on July 18 at a home in the east end of Montreal.

According to the SPVM’s news release, two men arrived at the victim’s door, pretending to be delivery men. As she opened the door, the two men entered the home and attacked her.

After the attack, they fled towards Dubuisson Street by the Annie-Pelletier municipal pool.
