Two Men Charged in Stamford Home Invasion After Delivery-Driver Disguise

A witness’s license plate tip, combined with a triggered panic alarm, enabled a rapid arrest.

Overview

  • Police say the break-in occurred late Monday morning at a home on Dunn Avenue in Stamford.
  • The intruders wore Amazon-style vests, claimed a package required a signature, and forced entry while carrying handguns.
  • The husband was pistol-whipped and the wife was grabbed and had a pillow placed over her head, with both later treated for minor injuries at Stamford Hospital.
  • After the panic alarm sounded, the suspects fled on foot before officers, guided by a witness-provided plate number, stopped their car at a traffic detour and recovered two handguns.
  • Hayes Edmonds, 24, and Sam Oduor, 25, both from Georgia, were identified by the victims, arraigned in Stamford Superior Court, charged with home invasion and related offenses, held on $2 million bond each, and are due back in court in March.
