Suspects sought in armed home invasion

Police are turning to the public to help them identify two suspects in an Oshawa apartment resident that was victim to an armed robbery.

At approximately 11 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 1, officers responded to an apartment unit near Simcoe Street South and Quebec Street for a robbery call. According to police, the victim was home alone in his apartment when two suspects entered through the unlocked door. The two suspects, both with knives, demanded the victim’s drugs and cash.

The two suspects fled the apartment and ran west on Quebec after taking prescription medication and cash from the victim.

Police say they believe the event was not random.

Police have issued a warrant for Adam Odette, 30, charging him with robbery, unlawfully being in a dwelling and possession of a dangerous weapon, in connection with this robbery. He is described as a white male, approximately five feet and nine inches tall and 150 pounds.

Police are advising residents that if you spot Odette, do not approach him and call police.

Investigators are still working to identify a second suspect.

Anyone with information on this investigation is asked to call Det. Sitaram at 1-888-579-1520, ext. 2741.
