ROANE POLICE INVESTIGATING EGYPT RIDGE HOME INVASION NEAR CALHOUN LINE - Intruder Flees
1-18-2018 - Roane County deputies are searching for a suspect in a home invasion Monday.
According to the Roane County Sheriff, a man was outside his home located on Egypt Ridge Road near the Calhoun County border, when he thought he heard a noise.
The victim was identified as Mike Maloney.
While in his bedroom, a man opened his bedroom door, and told the resident that he had a gun.
The suspect advised the resident to not look outside, and to give him his car keys.

According to the Sheriff, the suspect is a white male in his early 20s, between 5'9" and 6'0" tall and weighs between 170 and 180 pounds.
The car he left in was described as a two-door black car with loud exhaust.
