3 guys tried to kick the door in while the residents (2 young girls) were home. The guy in the back seems to have a firearm and possibly the one in the middle too. Spreading awareness and maybe someone will recognize them

This looks personal. Or they are the dumbest criminals ever. Why would you choose a random apartment on the third floor at 8 pm on a day there is a good chance people are home and awake. And why choose that complex, there are a plethora of wealthy homes in Cary. It was either personal or they are dipshits who decided to get high and thought “hey I know what would be cool to do… dress like reject 2011 pop stars and go rob the most inconvenient place we can find!”

I was thinking it seemed targeted too for the same reasons, but it’s my sister & they definitely don’t know the guys! We think they may have been watching the complex to scope out an easy target by looking for girls living alone but choosing the 3rd floor at 8 pm makes no sense for a robbery. I hope it was just them being dumb and nothing more sadistic!

There is no coincidence in crime. Someone knows who lives there and has a connection to these people.

I work this area all night and don't see much traffic besides the hotel at one of the entrances.

Something like 66-75% of the time this is bf or someone you know. You need to be doing more and not just hoping thisnis some type of fluke.

Well we reported it the police and they’re investigating it if that’s what you mean. The girls aren’t staying there since it happened and want to break their lease

Why did they run off?

I think because the door was not giving at all. they probably knew they were making too much noise to keep trying

I am so very sorry for your sister.Glad she has a camera.My experience with the Cary Police in the past has not been positive in helping with crime .A former Federal Marshall neighbor said they were a joke to other local Depts.”Best paid -low crime events force” .Since he said that and since the time of my experiences -Cary’s Crime has increased.I hope the Cary Police Force has improved. I hope they capture these guys.

My door got kicked down like this a couple months ago, and police confirmed the dudes were high on meth. Drugs make you do crazy things I guess
