A Chicago family was robbed at gunpoint just outside their home in a brazen crime caught on surveillance cameras in Chicago's Beverly neighborhood last week.
The Pettiford family said it all started as a routine Thursday, but things quickly changed as Michelle Pettiford and her 12-year-old daughter returned home from volleyball practice.
A chilling incident unfolded in Chicago’s Beverly neighborhood as surveillance cameras recorded the terrifying moments when multiple armed men approached a couple and pointed guns at them in an attempt to steal their car."The scream ... You know, they talk about blood curdling and all that, but that coming from your daughter," said her father Jeff Pettiford."I'll never forget that sound.
Jeff Pettiford said he tried to offer the men money, but they only wanted a car. So, he helped them start his Audi."They couldn't figure out how to start the car. I told them how to start the car, then they wanted the key," Jeff Pettiford told NBC Chicago."I told them where it was, they still wanted me to give it to them. It's a fab. I don't think they understood."
