suburban home invasion where masked men held a mother and daughter at gunpoint while rifling through their house. Police said multiple men, armed and masked, forced their way into the home and held a mother and her juvenile daughter at gunpoint, demanding that they turn over their valuables.
The intruders searched the home and threatened to kill the captives if they did not cooperate with their demands, police said in a statement to Fox News. The masked men left with several personal belongings, two vehicles and the victims’ phones, telling the mother they would kill her if she called the police.
Police said the mother and daughter cooperated with the intruders and were not physically harmed. The stolen vehicles were found a few hours later after they were abandoned. Police have arrested seven suspects, ages 18 to 24, in connection with the home invasion. They each face a slew of charges including aggravated assault, theft by taking and false imprisonment.
An eighth suspect, Jermaine Caldwell, 23, remains at large, police said. He is wanted for conspiracy to commit home invasion, aggravated assault, false imprisonment, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony and theft by taking. The Sandy Springs Police Department said additional funds are forthcoming for information leading to Caldwell’s arrest.
