SUMMARY: Deputies have arrested three men in connection with a home invasion robbery at a North Naples home Saturday evening.Deputies say Richard Dejesus, 16, entered the home of Sterling and Erika Misener through a back window. Once inside, Dejesus unlocked a side door to let Christopher Clark, 20, and Henry Defeo, 16, into the home. One of the suspects was armed with a handgun, according to reports.
Sterling Misener was awakened by the home alarm system. He began searching the home and was met by the suspects, reports said.
Investigators said Clark and Defeo went with Misener to shut off the alarm while Dejesus stayed with Erika Misener, asking about the location of safes in the house. The suspects ripped the house phone out of the wall and smashed the victim’s cell phone, according to reports.
The Miseners’ 15 and 16-year-old sons were in their bedrooms. The 16-year-old heard the commotion and called 911 from his cell phone to report the robbery in progress.
The suspects tried to access a safe in the house but were not successful, according to reports. They then took the couple into the garage to try to access a second safe, reports said.At this point deputies entered the home and apprehended Clark and Defeo, according to reports. Dejesus ran from the home and got into a car driven by a fourth suspect.
Dejesus was later apprehended by Cape Coral police at his home around 3 a.m. Sunday after suspects gave deputies his address.
None of the victims were harmed. Investigators are still looking for the driver of the getaway car, a green two-door Pontiac Grand Prix.
