Those who live within the community told 7News they’re suspicious of three men they saw. “Three males in dark clothing. That’s unusual over here,” said Jeff Bingham. Hours after the incident, 7News spoke with the victim, York Valdez , who recounted the ordeal and said the men took his Rolex, his wife’s watch, expensive purses and clothes. “There was a gun put at my head. They put me in the second floor for five hours. They took all my jewelry, my watches, that’s nothing. Right now I don’t care more [concerned about]the family,” said Valdez. He speculates his large following on TikTok made him a target. “I have a lot of followers on TikTok more than 5 million people see me every week, so around 20 million, 50 million per month. So I’m very famous on TikTok that’s what happening. Also, this happening because [inaudible] my own things that I do to give promotion to my business. They think that I have money in my house and this is the first time I bring some expensive watches to my house. I never bring the watch I always put it in my safe box. I never keep money with me, nothing, only my cards,” said Valdez. The thieves also stole a car from the family’s driveway. “Subjects fled in pearl white Cadillac,” radioed an officer. An empty spot remains where their Cadillac was parked but other lavish cars, a boat, and a statue still sit in the driveway. Neighbors are now left feeling concerned and uneasy as the subjects remain at large and the unknown lingers. “Yeah it does like I say.
