Police search for suspects who failed to break hurricane glass in Florida

The Fort Lauderdale Police Department is searching for two men who attempted to break into an occupied home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The incident occurred just after 6:00 p.m. on October 19, according to the New York Post. [1]

Security video captured one suspect, who wore a black hooded sweatshirt and red pants, repeatedly striking a window with a handgun. Police stated that the attempt failed because the residence was equipped with hurricane impact windows that did not break. [1]

The incident follows other violent robbery attempts across the United States. As FTMQ News reported earlier, suspects crashed a pickup truck into a jewelry store in Lynnwood, Washington, on October 8, where the store owner fired a gun to drive them away. Additionally, FTMQ News reported that United States Marshals arrested two men in Lynn, Massachusetts, on October 7 for attempted murder after an off-duty New York City police officer was slashed during a robbery.
