A victim in a string of home invasion robberies is breaking his silence about the terrifying ordeal.

19-year-old John Lee didn't want to show his face, but the UNT student did speak to us about the home invasion that left him and his family rattled.
He said he was in his room when a group of masked burglars came in through a back door.
They pointed guns at the family and held them captive while they ransacked the house.
"My dad swatted the gun away, there was a struggle, but the guy didn't hurt him at all. So that's why I assumed he just wanted to get some stuff and leave," explained John Lee
"They took many electronics and a lot of money, and that's about it. Again we didn't really have any jewelry for them to take."
John Lee's family was hit on Friday. Other homes were hit Saturday and finally on Sunday during
Following another home invasion police in Carrollton arrested two men who fled in a stolen car.
