A Sansom Park homeowner says two girls knocked on his door, and after his wife opened the door, three gunman rushed in.
"They had bandannas over their face," the homeowner, who did not wish to be identified, told NBCDFW's Scott Gordon. "A guy came in with a gun and told me to step back, step back. It was three guys.. All of them had weapons in their arms."
The criminals tied the victims' hands and legs with zip ties and started carrying out electronics. "They kept telling me to shut up, lay down, be still, you know."
Little did they know, a neighbor across the street had seen everything.
"The three guys barged in," the neighbor told NBCDFW. "They had pistols in their hands and they barged in. All I heard was, 'Get on the ground! Get on the ground!'"
She called 911 and police arrived within minutes, to find the bandits still carrying stuff out of the house.
The only thing more shocking than the crime itself, the suspects' ages -- 19-year-old James Vallejo of Fort Worth was arrested along with two 16-year-old boys and two 16-year-old girls.
