Men in roofing truck suspected of entering East Haven home

EAST HAVEN, CT (WFSB) -

East Haven police are investigating a burglary that happened late Saturday morning.

Police said a homeowner arrived at her house shortly before 11:30 a.m. to find three men on her property. Police said the strangers told her a neighbor said she needed new gutters.

Police said the woman threatened to call police and the men left.

The rear cellar door of the house had been forced open, according to police, but nothing was taken.

Police said the same men knocked on other doors in the area, asking if people needed work done.

They were in a cargo-style truck which said "ROOFING" in with black lettering on both sides. Police said it's unclear if the men were actually roofers or just posing as such. The truck was last seen traveling into New Haven from Laurel Street onto Eastern Street, according to police.

Anyone with information is asked to call East Haven police.
