Police have released an image of the getaway vehicle allegedly used by two suspects in a March 14 home invasion in Morgan Hill.

The vehicle in the video images is a four-door sedan, dark gray in color.

The home invasion was reported about 9:30 a.m. March 14 on Rosemary Circle, according to police. Two suspects entered the home and demanded the residents open their safe.

The suspects said they had a weapon, but did not display one, the witnesses told officers. The suspects got away with an undisclosed amount of cash and property taken from the safe.

Neither victim was hurt, police said.

The victims described the robbers as Hispanic males, police said. One was about five feet, three inches tall and about 140 pounds. He was wearing a black mask which covered the bottom half of his face and spoke with a Spanish accent.

The other suspect was described as about five feet, four inches tall and about 150 pounds, police said. He was wearing a black ski mask, a black hoodie and dark pants. He also spoke with a Spanish accent per the victims.

At 9:15 a.m. March 11, a resident on the 400 block of Cascades Court reported a suspect was attempting to break into her residence using a pry tool, according to MHPD. The victim said the suspect ran when she opened up the blinds.

The suspect was described as a male, about five feet, seven inches tall with a thin build, according to police. The suspect wore a black beanie with openings for the eyes and mouth, a pair of black or blue jeans and a gray sweatshirt.

He was last seen running southbound toward Community Park on West Edmundson Avenue, police said. Morgan Hill officers arrived on scene within minutes and were unable to locate the suspect. A neighbor in the area reported seeing a dark colored SUV in the area around the time of the incident.
