Police in New Jersey are using nanny cam footage to pursue a robbery suspect who punched and choked a suburban mom as her toddler watched.
At 10:30 a.m. Friday, the suspect kicked down the locked door of a Millburn, N.J., house and brutally assaulted the unsuspecting homeowner.
WARNING: The video is extremely graphic.
"I knew that if I started screaming, my daughter would too, and I was afraid she would get hurt," the victim said. "I took it. I didn’t cry the entire time."
The suspect left with an unspecified amount of jewelry, including the woman’s wedding ring. The child and her one-year-old sister upstairs were unhurt.
The victim was taken to a hospital where she was treated for injuries to her face and legs, according to The Star-Ledger, but should recover fully.
The suspect is a black male, 5’11" and about 210 lbs, possibly with a salt-and-pepper beard. Please contact local police if you somehow have any leads.
