The video shows as three men claiming to be workers with the local gas company rush towards a family outside of their Whittier home, trying to gain entry.
Terrifying footage from a home surveillance camera shows the moments that three armed suspects attempted to force entry into a Whittier home early Friday evening. The family living at the home in the 8100 block of Bradwell Avenue, say that the men, all wearing masks and hoodies, claimed to part of their gas company and asked to check on a meter, but were told they couldn't come inside because they were 'very suspicious,' as detailed in a post from the victims made on the Ring app.
The video shows as the three men walk away from the front door and the family walks outside shortly afterwards, watching them as they leave at around 7 p.m. on Friday. As they started to walk back inside, the three suspects are seen sprinting towards the family while pulling what looked to be guns from their waistbands.The family was able to make it back inside safely before the men fled the area. Now, others living in the area are concerned for their own safety.
