An elderly couple was approached by thieves as they entered their home in the Villa Bosch neighborhood of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The incident occurred in the early hours of Sunday, January 30. The older adults were trying to enter their Ford Fiesta car into the garage, but hooded men surprised them and pointed firearms at them.
