Jeannette police are looking for a fourth suspect in connection with a home invasion Friday that left a man injured.

Authorities have an arrest warrant for Isaiah Morton, 16, of Jeannette, who is charged as an adult with conspiracy, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary and related offenses.

Police arrested three suspects Friday on allegations the teens broke into a South Fifth Street row home. Authorities believe the suspects targeted the residence.

Jamar Miles, 17, of Pittsburgh and Jermaine A. Walker, 15, of Jeannette are charged as adults with robbery, aggravated assault, theft, receiving stolen property and resisting arrest. Larenzo Dayshawn Peddicord, 18, of Jeannette is charged with robbery, aggravated assault and burglary.

Witnesses told police the suspects wore masks when they broke in. One of them yelled, “Where is all the weed? … where is all the drugs?” according to a criminal complaint. One man was punched in the head multiple times, and a second man escaped out a window, police said. A gun was pointed at a woman.

The suspects took several items, including an Xbox, police said. All three suspects arrested Friday were being held on bail at the Westmoreland County Prison or Regional Youth Services Center in Hempfield.
