Sheriff's Office reports from Dec. 12 state the suspect rang the doorbell of a home in the 4300 block of Fairfax Drive, in the East County, and then forced his way into the residence when the homeowner opened the door. The suspect demanded money and other items. He forced the victim into her bedroom closet and then fled.
