Two residents of a home in the Lorton area were the victims of an attempted scam last night. Around 5:10 p.m. on Thursday, March 15, two men knocked on the front door of a residence in the 9500 block of Fourth Street. The homeowners answered the door and the men explained they worked with a construction company. The men told the homeowners that they needed to discuss the removal of a tree in their backyard.
The husband walked into the backyard with one of the men while the second man came into the home with the wife. As the two sat at the kitchen table talking, the woman heard a noise elsewhere in the home. She went to investigate and discovered a third man attempting to steal items from inside. All three suspects fled from the home and left the area in a silver truck, possibly a Chevrolet. No items were taken and no one was injured.
The suspects were all described as Hispanic and in their 30s. The first suspect was 6 feet tall and weighed 160 pounds. The second suspect was about 5 feet 7 inches tall and weighed 190 pounds.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Solvers at 1-866-411-TIPS/8477 or Fairfax County Police at 703-691-2131.
