FORT WORTH, Texas - Fort Worth police are looking for two men who tried to steal a car and got into a shootout with a homeowner.
The car thieves got away but Fort Worth detectives hope you will help get them into custody.
What we know:
An aggravated robbery took place in a quiet Fort Worth neighborhood on August 15 at 1:50 a.m.
Police believe one of the suspects punched the window and, with the tint and everything, just removes that whole window and sets it on the ground until a Ring camera notifies the homeowner that something is going on out there. The homeowner becomes aware of what is taking place, then comes outside to protect his property and a gunfight ensues.
FWPD on the robbery
Local perspective:
"You see a white Camaro sitting in the street with black stripes on it. We know they are driving that vehicle, and they're getting out to steal a Camaro. A car just like that. They've got a computer device, they're trying to hot wire through that computer device," said Officer Buddy Calzada.
"They're firing back and forth, you can actually hear it as well. Fortunately, nobody was hit or hurt in this situation."
