In a similar story, Briefly News posted that Karin Morrow shared a video of a robbery that occurred in broad daylight.

In the viral clip, a house owner is seen entering the gate followed by thugs. A white car emerges in the shot and it’s parked not far from the main gate. Two armed men get out.

They are also seen coming out in a hurry carrying the home owner’s belongings and one is also seen pointing what looks like a gun at the owner before driving off. The social media account holder says car keys, a cellphone and a laptop were taken from the guy.
