"It freaked me out because it is close to home and the fact that I have kids, it's very concerning," Emma Walker said.

Walker said she witnessed the whole situation: when police rolled up with guns drawn and chased the suspects.

Police said two men and a juvenile broke into a home by pushing in the air conditioner. An alarm went off in the home and a security camera caught them in the act.
