• Unwanted visitors rob disabled man: Police are looking for a group of thieves that robbed a disabled Capitol Hill resident and forced their way into his apartment this weekend where they partied, took drugs and boozed it up — apparently enjoying fine food and drink thanks to the victim’s bank account.
   
  According to the report on the incident, the mentally disabled man told police he was hanging out at a club in Pike/Pine Saturday night and was walking home through Cal Anderson just before midnight when three young males and a female near the basketball court started following him. The victim told police the group surrounded him on Broadway near Thomas and demanded money or “they would do something to him.” The victim told the four he had no money but the suspects then demanded he withdraw $100 from a nearby ATM. The victim told police he was afraid and complied with the demand.With the victim’s cash in hand, the group decided to continue following the man as he walked away. The victim told police he asked the group to leave him alone several times but they continued to follow him to his nearby apartment where he lives alone. The victim went inside but the group began knocking loudly on his door. The victim finally let them in because the four wouldn’t stop knocking, he told police.
   
  Inside his apartment, the group began drinking beer and smoking marijuana. The disabled man decided to go to bed but the male and female who had already robbed him of $100 refused to leave the victim’s home.When the victim awoke late Sunday morning, he found his unwanted guests were still in his living room and still smoking and drinking. He again told the group to leave — this time, the three males grabbed his apartment keys and left the female behind with the victim. It turns out the trio was on a shopping trip. The victim told police the males returned with “expensive” alcohol and food to continue the party in his apartment. The victim then went to tell a neighbor what was happening inside his apartment — when he returned, the four thieves had hightailed it leaving only packages of their ill-gotten gains behind.
   
  The victim told police the group didn’t leave the apartment empty handed, stealing his video game system, a bank card, an ORCA card and a red backpack. He was able to provide a general description of the thieves to police — three young Somali or East African males and a female who spoke with accents. Police took evidence from the scene in order to collect possible fingerprints and advised the man to get his locks changed, use a security chain on his door and call 911 if he ever sees the suspects again.
