‘You go out or we go in.’ Masked Trio threatens homeowners in terrifying video
Police in Virginia are investigating an apparent attempt after a video showed a trio of people dressed in scary costumes terrorizing a family.
The shocking incident, captured on the ring’s home surveillance camera, took place on Tuesday, Oct. 14 in Alexandria, a city south of Washington, DC.
Alexandria Police Phickor Fice Officer Rebekka Heite said the agency is looking for three suspects in connection with a creepy crime caught on viral footage exparing online.
From Friday, Oct. 17, Shite said that no one has been arrested in connection with this incident, which was reported at 9:50 pm local time on Oct. 14.
During a press conference after the incident, Alexandria Police Tarrick McGuire told reporters Police believe the Trio was trying to break into the home.
“I want to be very clear, this is a very important issue,” McGuire said.
“They started acting like they were doing a prank,” said the police chief. “That prank that is said to have happened later turned serious as they started making ideas to threaten and scare the family.”

Shayla Whiteside, who lives at the home, told the news that she thought it was a prank at first.
But things changed quickly.
“They tried to force the front door, raised my handles, tore the back fence, and tore the back screen, yelling threats, saying they were going to kill us,” you told the news.
Whiteteside was told that a Trio of Eamedled Ageglars had appeared and appeared to be running away.
‘It’s either you go out or we go in’
The footage shows the horrifying episode that began when one of the cut people knocked on the front door.
The video shows the trio standing directly in the front yard before the exchange ringing the bell, knocking on the door and, at the same time, jiggling its handle.
“It’s either you get out or we’re in,” one of the men on duty says in the video as the Trio continues to demand the family open the door.
When someone in the video asks who they are, one person replies, “your worst night.”
Another broken suspect then said, “I see you… Open the door.”
Finally, this video shows the experiment in motion. It sounds like, “We’ll be back.”
No one was injured in this incident.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to call Alexandria police at 703-746-4444.
