Msbandiit and her husband were subjected to the terrifying experience of being bound and forced onto the floor by the intruders. The couple’s young children, aged 9 and 12, were also present during the robbery and understandably shaken by the intrusion. The sight of the gun-wielding individual left the elder son shouting in a panic, fearing the worst for his parents.

A Desperate Escape

Intent on seizing valuables, the criminals looted cell phones, laptops, televisions, and other electronic devices before stashing them in the victims’ car. However, their plan was foiled when a fellow gamer, playing Call of Duty: Warzone nearby, detected unusual sounds and alerted Msbandiit. Quick to respond, she immediately contacted both local security officers and the police, leading the thieves to make a hasty retreat. However, they managed to escape with only two watches, two phones, and the car keys. The abandoned phone and keys were later discovered in a nearby field.
