"Gentlemen" Rob Family's Henderson Home
Last week three men allegedly broke into a family’s Henderson apartment around midnight and robbed them at gunpoint. For a half hour they ransacked the home and took various appliances, including a 42-inch plasma TV, laptop and Xbox. Police suspect they’ve committed at least fifteen other crimes of Las Vegas home invasion this year, including one where a victim got shot.
What makes this crime of Las Vegas home invasion peculiar is that the suspects were relatively polite. They reassured the parents that they wouldn’t hurt their children. And they apologized for flushing their cellular phones down the toilet.
The crime of Las Vegas home invasion makes it a crime to break into a home, whether or not someone is inside at the time of the break-in. It’s punished as a category B felony, carrying one to ten years in prison. If the suspect had firearms at the time, then the prison range is two to fifteen years.
