Gwinnett man killed while wife and daughter tied up in home invasion

A man was shot dead in his home on Sunday while his wife and daughter were tied up.

Miguel Osorio, 44, was shot by an intruder after he tried to break from his restraints during the attack at his Gwinnett County home, police spokesman Jacob Albright confirmed.

Osorio’s 56-year-old wife and 19-year-old daughter were tied up, their names have not yet been released.

Cook said he came home from church and saw police in front of his neighbor’s home, reported 11Alive.com. 

He was horrified to learn that police believe home intruders shot a husband in front of his family in the middle of the afternoon. ‘I would be scared, I would be worrying about my family, and say just whatever you get want, just don’t hurt us,’ Cook said.

Police said two men in bright construction or traffic vests got into the home without any obvious signs of forced entry.

Apparently neighbors heard multiple gunshots and then screams from the women in the house.

Cook said he didn’t know the man who died but said this robbery never should have turned deadly. ‘I understand he was scared and everything, but they didn’t have to shoot him,’ he said.

Police said the suspects got into a car that already had a driver inside of it – they were seen getting into a gold or tan SUV.
