Pair of bozos caught on video failing to smash hurricane-proof windows with handgun in brazen robbery attempt
Police are seeking two suspects after they tried to break into an occupied home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and failed to get through its impact-resistant windows. The incident matters because the security footage shows the attempted entry was stopped by glass designed to withstand hurricane conditions.
The attempt took place shortly after 6 pm on 19 October. One suspect repeatedly struck a window with a handgun, then jumped and threw himself against it, while a second suspect looked around nearby; police say the window did not break. Anyone who recognises the pair is asked to contact Fort Lauderdale police or Detective B. Ledbetter.
In short
- Two suspects tried to enter an occupied Fort Lauderdale home.
- Hurricane impact glass withstood repeated blows.
- Police are asking the public to identify the pair.
