The Livingston County Sheriff is hoping you can help find the man who allegedly tried to rob a Chillicothe resident at his home Tuesday afternoon.

In a news release, Sheriff Steve Cox says the resident greeted a man at the door of his home in the 1500 block of Bryan Street at about 4:15 p.m. Tuesday.

Sheriff Cox says the white, male suspect was 30 to 32 years old, about 6’2″, 200 plus pounds, clean shaven and bald headed. He was wearing dark colored dress pants and a dark dress coat or jacket. Cox says the lone suspect was wearing white latex style gloves.

The suspect allegedly made certain comments and physically made an additional attempt to rob the resident. No injuries were reported. It was unknown if the man was armed. The suspect soon fled on foot.

Cox says the suspect may have been under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol.

The investigation continues as officers from the Chillicothe Police and Livingston County Sheriff’s Office continue their search for the suspect. If you have information that could help, Cox says you should call the Chillicothe Police at 660-646-2121.
