Terrifying Home Invasion: Armed Thieves Break Into Teen’s Room Through Window

A 16-year-old boy was jolted awake by noise during the night, prompting his mother to rush from a nearby room to his side, police reported.

According to authorities, the intruders then threatened both the teenager and his mother with a firearm.

The suspects made off with a safe and fled the scene in a white Volkswagen hatchback, police said.

While four other residents were inside the house at the time of the incident, they were unharmed, though understandably distressed by the events.

The family, who have been renting the home for the past 11 months, have not experienced any previous trouble, according to neighbors.

“It’s terrifying. I don’t know what I would do in that moment . I feel really terrible for them,” one neighbour said.

Investigators were seen door-knocking neighbours’ houses as they continue to investigate the horrifying ordeal.

No arrests have been made at this stage.
