TAMPA - It wasn't particularly hard for the victims of a Riverview home invasion to identify the burglar. He was the only one with an outline of the state of Florida tattooed on his face, authorities say.

In addition to the Florida tattoo, Sean Roberts also has the words Crazy Cracker written or tattooed on his head, Hillsborough County sheriff's spokesman J.D. Callaway said.

The victims identified Roberts via photos, Callaway said.

The armed home invasion occurred about 5 a.m. July 8 at a Riverview mobile home. Roberts and a woman entered the home and threatened the residents, forcing the victims into a bathroom, deputies say.

Roberts, 19, of Riverview, and the Billie Kiser, 28, took prescription drugs, a DVD player, a CD player and $120 in cash, Callaway said.

Roberts has the aliases Crazy Cracker and Pretty, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office Web site.

Roberts and Kiser were arrested Sunday and charged with armed home invasion. Kiser also was charged with battery and domestic battery by strangulation.

Roberts and Kiser remain in jail without bail.
