Cops Release Footage Of Masked Invaders That Smashed Their Way Into Family Home

Cops in Chandler, Arizona, are looking for help in tracking down armed raiders who smashed their way into a family home through a back door.

It is unclear if the crooks who smashed their way into the home on the 2300 Block of Wesat Detroit Place were aware that the family were there, and they fled when they were disturbed.

Police said that there were two suspects who forced their way into the home through the rear patio door, making a banging noise that alerted the family who were awake at the time.

A member of the family then discovered broken glass lying across the interior floor of the home and the suspects, who were armed, then fled through the backyard on foot.

Police said it was unclear which direction they disappeared and they were described as male, both wearing dark clothes with black ski masks and believed to be in their early 20s.

It is not known if they had a getaway vehicle and a video of the incident that happened on 8 October was now been released by police in a bid to try and track down the suspects.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Chandler police department.
