Police in Seattle are investigating a string of robberies against mostly elderly Asian people who are confronted at gunpoint outside their homes.
The suspects are believed to flee in a Kia or Hyundai vehicle.
"They’re going after people they think are easy targets," O’Neil repeated, assuring the public that police are doing everything in their power to deter crime. Home surveillance video of one such robbery that occurred Saturday in broad daylight showed two suspects approaching a male victim from behind as he stood in front of a home.
Two masked suspects approached the victim from behind as he rang the doorbell of a home in Seattle's Beacon Hill neighborhood around 4:40 p.m. Saturday. One suspect held the victim at gunpoint and demanded his wallet before the second suspect stunned the victim, who was seen collapsing the ground. The suspects rummaged through the victim’s pockets and could be heard trying to remove the jewelry from the man’s fingers.
