One of the roommates let the two men in the apartment thinking they were young men who probably knew someone inside, the students told Action News. The suspects were apparently told this was a home they would be able to find drugs and money. But that was not the case."We were all kept in the same room together for over an hour they were there," the second student said.
"You never think it's going to happen to you, but when it does it's like a shock," the second student said.
