What happened to this woman and her daughter was so frightening she says they relive it every day.
Woodson Park Drive near Humble is very familiar to a woman ABC13 isn't identifying. She lives nearby. But on the night of April 22, something wasn't right.
"It was late at night; it was dark," she said.
There was something unfamiliar.
"Cones were all the way across, all the way across," she said.
It was a precursor to something violent.
"I thought they were going to kill us," she said.
She and her teenage daughter were on their way home that night when they came upon cones blocking the entire street.
"So that meant I couldn't even go in that lane," she said.
Within seconds, three to four men ran out from the trees and surrounded the car. One had a pistol, another was trying to open the door, and the one on her side had a shotgun and was yelling.
"Get out of the car, get out the MF car," she recalled him saying.

Just like gangs pretending to be cops, executing no-knock warrants to perpetrate home invasions....
you know why....
No, not at the moment.
The two men the victims saw both had masks on.
I was thinking accents, if any, and clothing.
Frankly, it sounded like typical Juarez stuff.
The difficult part of the answer to this is to actually locate and identify the perps.
The easy part of the answer is to kill them without hesitation.
Jeez, just like the cops wear...
I hope that woman gets a gun rack for her car.
We know it wasn’t SWAT guys, cuz no dogs were shot.
those pesky amish again.
what about an anti-carjack device that would, at the flick of a switch, ‘arm’ the car by electrifying the shell of the car. if anyone outside touches the door handle... zaaap!
just a thought.
...Now, lets talk about states rights to have state or local police officers with ID, to knock on doors to serve warrants legally. And make no mistake, be armed and if assaulted by individuals inside, shoot to kill...
...Now, lets talk about a trillion useless laws passed by congress to deal with the issue of law enforcement. One word, no, two, It's BULLSH!T! They have no right!!!
...Who are they going to send to your door if you haven't sent in your census form? Part time workers with firearms to demand you show your FOOKIN PAPERS, when they don't show theirs???
I think Jethro Bodine had a double naught spy car that did that- with an ejector seat, as well.
Say, this would be a good time to be armed, wouldn't it?!
First home invasions and now this. I hate these stories.
Rick Perry does not support AZ law. He is a RINO.
Hang the bastards. This is as serious as a crime can get.
Trick??
A very odd term to be used for this incident.
Ambush, trap and attempted robbery or murder would be more like it.
