DuPage County home invasions

Malik Pitts was awaiting trial for a separate charge when he cut off his ankle bracelet back in June to elude police,

Police said that's when the second suspect entered the home holding a handgun and directed the victims to walk toward the back of the home. Once inside, one of the men entered a bedroom where two young girls and their grandmother were sleeping.

Authorities said one of the men attempted to pull down the blanket and shorts of one of the girls.

The man hit the 74-year-old grandmother and fought with the girls' father, police said.

A similar situation was reported in nearby Lombard 40 minutes later. Police said a man pointed a gun at one of the residents and said "where's the money?" before going to an upstairs bedroom, where a mother and daughter were sleeping in the same bed. One of the men ordered them to the main floor of the home, then ordered the daughter to the basement and told her to remove her clothing, authorities said.

When the girl refused and fled, prosecutors said her father struggled with her attacker. At one point, police said one of the suspects fired shots that struck the father in the chest, went through him, and ultimately struck the other suspect as well.

Doctors said the resident did not suffer any life-threatening injuries.

"‘Round struck the resident In the chest, pass through him instruct the other perpetrator. The resident was not injured.’’"

Where'd you get THAT sentence?? Did you copy and paste or retype it? It wasn't written in the article like that - THIS is the way it was written:

"At one point, police said one of the suspects fired shots that struck the father in the chest, went through him, and ultimately struck the other suspect as well."
