Holly MatkinTamarac, FL – A Florida woman was ambushed in front of her home in broad daylight by two men who forced her back inside at gunpoint, security footage showed (video below).
The harrowing attack occurred near the intersection of Northwest 54 Lane and Northwest 57 Street as the woman was heading out to her car at approximately 9 a.m. on Oct. 26, WSVN reported.
Security footage showed her opening her driver’s door as two men dressed in black ran up behind her.
The victim appeared to fall to the ground as the suspects closed in on her.
According to police, the men forced the woman to escort them into her residence at gunpoint, WFOR reported.
Once inside, they tied her up and ransacked her home, surveillance footage showed.
“While the subjects are inside the residence, surveillance video captures an unknown female wearing a dark-colored hair wrap (possibly concealing dreads or braids) and dark-colored clothing approaching the home,” police said, according to WFOR. “The female opens the door, says something in Creole, then closes the door before wiping the handle down with her long sleeve shirt and returning back to the awaiting car.”
All three suspects fled the scene in a 2019 or 2020 white Lexus SUV NX300 F Sport shortly thereafter, WFOR reported.
They made off with approximately $2,700 of the woman’s property, according to police.
The Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO) said the search for the armed robbery suspects is ongoing.
It is unclear whether any of the three suspects have been identified.
