Teenager protects twin brothers with father's rifle after break-in attempt

Teenager protects twin brothers with father's rifle after break-in attempt

NORTH LAS VEGAS (KSNV News3LV) – It's a parent's nightmare – the children are home alone when robbers break in.

Two young men are caught on surveillance video breaking in to Kieawa Mason's home.

His 14-year-old son, Andrew, and his younger twins were the only ones home. Andrew and his siblings were trained not to answer when anyone knocked.

"Eventually I hear a thud on the door so I assume, he's breaking in," Andrew said.

Smart and well-trained, but it pains me deeply children need this level of instruction libdem4life Aug 2015 #1

I concur with your assessment of the parents' good instruction. Eleanors38 Aug 2015 #2

and protection. It takes two incomes to survive these days, and childcare is very expensive. God bless these young kids and gratitude to their parents for knowing what to do.

My folks instructed us in how to escape any number of threats: Fire (go out the second floor window), boating (we all could swim well, and float in the water for a long time, even without a lifejacket), car crash in water (escape through window when water was past upper seat height), break-in (don't go down stairs unless parents are threatened and attacked, and then only with our handguns, which we were responsible for).
