A gun on my head: Ontario family targeted by thieves twice in one month [Video]

An Oakville, Ont. homeowner targeted not once, but twice this month, is sharing his family’s terrifying experience in an effort to caution others to ensure their home is secured against would-be thieves.

“The fact that you live in Canada and the fact that you’re supposedly living in one of the safer cities or safer part of the GTA, it is extremely jarring to have this happen,” said the homeowner, whose identity Global News agreed to protect due to safety concerns.

“We were all asleep 3 a.m., all of a sudden we are woken up. I had a guy standing on my right with a gun on my head, masked hoodie, my wife, the other side. She was like, ‘Hey, what’s going on?’ there was another guy standing on her side with a gun on her head, and they were just like, ‘Wake up, get up. Don’t do anything stupid. Get up’,” he recalled.
