Jaguar Reported Stolen In Home Invasion

Couple Bound; Husband Beaten

POSTED: 5:48 pm EDT July 19, 2007

Police are searching for three armed robbers who are accused of holding up a family in their own home.

Channel 3 Eyewitness News Len Besthoff reported that the robbers fled from the home invasion with not only with cash and electronics, but with a luxury car -- a Jaguar.

The home invasion victims not only lost a pair of cars, but also the key to their GMC Yukon, which they had to bring to the dealer.

The robbery took place at a home in the southeast section of the city. Police said that Marcel Dellisser, 36, and his wife arrived home around 4 a.m. and were confronted in their driveway by three masked men armed with handguns.

The victims told police that they were brought inside the home, bound together and Delisser was attacked until he revealed the location of money inside the home.

Delisser remains hospitalized with unknown injuries.

"I really don't know what to think, it's just crazy that something like this could happen on the street. I never imagined," said neighbor Jesse Arthur.

Besthoff reported that Bloomfield police records indicate that someone with Dellisser's last name who lives at the same address was arrested on drug charges three days before the home invasion.

"We don't believe this was a random crime, however all aspects are still in investigation," said Capt. Jeffrey Blatter of the Bloomfield Police Department.

Anyone with information regarding the investigation is urged to contact the Bloomfield Police Department by dialing 860-242-6060.
