Rashawn Belfield, of Flax Lane, in the Lincoln Heights community, faces charges of first degree burglary, second degree kidnapping, assault by pointing a gun, attempted robbery with a dangerous weapon and robbery with a dangerous weapon.
The charges stem from an investigation by Officer David Brown of the police department, who was dispatched to the victim's house shortly after 8 p.m. Tuesday.
Brown, according to Captain Andy Jackson, learned Belfield, 19, allegedly came in the house after one of the victim heard a knocking noise at the bedroom window.
The female victim went to the backdoor to investigate and Belfield allegedly forced his way in, pointing a gun at her head and forced her to a room where a male victim was and demanded his wallet.
The man handed over the wallet, which contained $65, and Belfield left, turning himself in the next evening.
Belfield, who knew the victims, has a January 11 court date.
