Home of elderly American couple invaded by 5 armed masked men

By BBN Staff: Just after 8 p.m. on Sunday, 9th August, the home of an elderly retired American couple from Kuxlin Ha in the Toledo District was invaded by 5 armed and masked men. The men gained entry via an unlocked glass window in the bathroom.

Eighty six (86) year old Gayle Scafe and his wife, 86 year old Dona Scafe were siting at home when 5 dark complexion men with face mask entered their home.

One of the men was armed with a gun and the rest were armed with knives. One of the men placed the pistol to Mr. Gayle Scafe’s head and demanded a safe with money. Scafe told the robbers that he didn’t have a safe and he handed over his wallet containing $700.

While one of the home invaders was robbing Gayle Scafe, the others ransacked the house and stole a Dell desktop Computer valued at $1,100, a cell phone valued at $400 along with other items.

During the home invasion, Mrs. Dona Scafe received a small cut on her head.

The couple could not identify any of the culprits.
