Masked gunmen force 11 Temple University students into basement during home invasion

Two masked gunmen woke up a house full of Philadelphia college students and forced them into the basement during a home-invasion robbery Friday morning, cops said.

Eleven Temple University students were sleeping in the off-campus home on North 15th Street at about 6 a.m. when two men in black hoodies woke them up and “gathered” them in the basement, Philadelphia police said in a statement provided to The Post.

The thieves made off with cellphones, debit and credit cards — and the keys to a 2015 Lincoln MKZ, which they stole and used as a getaway car.

None of the students of the North Philadelphia school was injured, cops said. The victims were described as eight women and three men, ranging in age from 20 to 22 years old.

Is that still a crime or is that after 1/1/2023 it gets reduced? Nice job PA.

This is just an example of the natural transfer of wealth. Isn’t this what most college kids vote for when they choose socialist candidates?

Why would anyone need a high-capacity magazine?

Because the police won't stop these thugs, and someone needs to stop the thugs from doing this over and over again.

Stupid crime really. Those are things one could easily snatch in a small time pickpocket or random mugging. Why go full felony armed robbery and kidnapping charges for petty items?

I’m guessing the criminals are on far left side of a Guassian distribution of IQ.
