Two Omaha homeowners had their security shaken this week after separate and very bold home invasions. One victim shares the story of her attack.

At her house near 64th and Parkview Lane, Patti Glinsmann calls it lunch time, but says after three men held her and her daughter at gunpoint Tuesday demanding money, it felt more like high noon. "The gun was huge, it was huge."

Patti was making lunch for her daughter when three men came barreling through the door. Immediately, one of them drew a gun and she knew she was in trouble.

Patti says her first thought was about her 4-year-old daughter. "I'm not worried about me, but I don't want my child to be a victim of this either. I don't want her to see her mom shot."

Patti says she pleaded with her three attackers not to harm her. "He's like, I'm not going to shoot your daughter. Then he started screaming at me and slamming my head on the table and put the gun up to my head."

Patti says one thing in particular frightened her about the gun. "It had an infrared on it, so that's all I keep seeing.”

As to why this happened, someone was moving out of her house the day before. She says she believes the home invasion may have been related to that person. Anyone with information is asked to call Omaha Police.

It's the second home invasion this week. Police say there are a few things we can all do to protect ourselves. First, if you're home, make sure your door is locked and deadbolted. Next, keep a porch light on. Finally, make sure your garage door is shut. "I'm scared to stay here, really," says Patti.

Patti won't forget how she was terrorized. "For them to come in and do this with my child here, that is the most frightening thing in the world." Her real concern is that her daughter won't either.

The second home invasion occurred near 90th and Military. Police say an armed suspect entered a home while three people slept. One victim was injured.
