Police are looking for the suspect who burglarized a home twice in two days in north Phoenix.

According to Silent Witness, the suspect first made entry to the house near 13th Avenue and Union Hills Drive on March 28. The residents came home and the victim's child found the family dog dead in their backyard pool.

On March 29, the family came home and found the suspect inside their house. The suspect reportedly pointed a handgun at the father in front of this child and yelled "don't call police." 

The homeowner was able to retrieve his own gun and fired several shots at the suspect but missed, Silent Witness said.

The suspect was last seen jumping fences in the area.

He is described as a Hispanic male, mid 20's, with a shaved head and a circular tattoo on his forehead.
