The lone resident, a 74-year-old female, was at home at the time. The suspects encountered the resident and made threats toward her as they removed some items from her home.
The suspects then fled the area on foot and were last seen running down St. Margaret's Bay Road toward the Armdale Roundabout.
The homeowner was not injured during the incident.
One suspect is described as being a white male, approximately six-feet-tall, reddish hair and was wearing a yellow-coloured hoodie.
