The family said they heard a knock at the door, but when one of the victims looked through the peephole, he couldn't see anyone. The culprits were hiding out of sight.


The man opened the door and that's when the attackers put a gun in his face.


The family didn't want to be identified because they are afraid the robbers will come back and kill them.

The gunman threatened to kill the kids if they didn't get money. read more »
