The day before yesterday, we reported a burglary at a mansion in Newport Beach, the occupants fought back with rifles, and the two robbers were one dead and one injured (click for details: This is the United States!2 robbers broke into the mansion at night, the owner of the house raised a rifle and fired, the robbers were killed and 1 wounded!)
According to the latest reports, the resident may be a Chinese, but the case is still foggy, many doubts are still unexplained, and the local police are unwilling to disclose more information, which makes the case very mysterious.
Valued at over $7 million, this mansion is located on a hillside in Newport Beach with a backyard overlooking the Pacific Ocean, renting up to $35,000 a month, and it is a gated community with security guards at the entrance of the community, which is theoretically very safe.
Early Monday morning, a neighbor heard screams, but it was not clear what was going on until a large number of police arrived at the scene, according to the Daily Mail.
According to neighbors, the house was rented by a wealthy Chinese citizen, and it was certain that it was the tenant who shot back that night.
Earlier, the police revealed that the resident and the suspect knew each other, but the police have not disclosed the specific relationship between the two parties. Sources said that 10 days before the incident, the suspect also tried to talk to the tenant, and the source said it was an attempted kidnapping, but it failed.
Newport Beach Police Department spokesman Steve Oberon once again stressed that this is a targeted case and that other residents have nothing to worry about, as residents and their families have already left the residence.
Newport Beach Mayor Will O'Neill said Monday that the incident should serve as a warning to criminals. "I can tell you right now that if you come to Newport Beach to commit a crime, we will protect ourselves, and today is an example of that," he said. ”
There are many doubts
Why did the suspect commit suicide?
There are many suspicious points in this case, and it has been three days since the incident, and the police are still tight-lipped and unwilling to disclose more information, which seems somewhat unusual, and this usually happens only when a higher level of investigation is involved, such as the involvement of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
First of all, this is a closed community, there are security guards at the entrance of the community, and strangers cannot enter the community through normal means, especially at three or four o'clock in the morning in the dead of night.
In the United States, whether it is a burglary or an attempted kidnapping, the suspect usually scatters and flees for his life after a failure, and even if an accomplice is killed, the rest of the people will still flee desperately. In this case, one suspect fell down on the street where he escaped with multiple shots and at the door, and the other suspect had a chance to escape, but shot himself not far from the scene, which is incomprehensible.
This is more like a Hollywood action movie, the act of silence after a failed crime. As of Wednesday, the Orange County Medical Examiner's Office has not released the name of the man who committed suicide because they have not reached his family.
In addition, the crime scene is located halfway up the mountain, and it is difficult to get there without a car, but the police have never announced whether there is a suspect vehicle at the crime scene? If not, then there must be an accomplice driving them over, and who is this accomplice?
