Pittsburgh police seek help identifying a robbery suspect.

A man wearing a black tassel cap, white mask, black peacoat and a yellow safety vest reportedly broke into a home around 1:30 p.m. Nov. 29 in the 1600 block of Beechwood Boulevard.

Public Safety spokeswoman Emily Bourne said two youths were inside at the time.

The suspect stole an undisclosed amount of money and a school ID of one of the teens.

Bourne said the man reportedly threatened to harm the youths if they told police what happened.

The suspect was last seen heading northbound on Beechwood Boulevard toward Aylesboro Avenue.

He was described as a white man standing about 6 feet tall, weighting 220 pounds with blue eyes. He was wearing khaki pants and carrying a black shopping bag with red handles and a heart-shaped logo on it.

Anyone with information is asked to call 412-422-6520 and ask for plainclothes detectives.
