The backstory:

The suspects are believed to have known the victim whose vehicle was stolen, according to the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office. The stolen car was taken from a residence inside the gated Lake Forest community, suggesting the suspects may have had prior access or familiarity with the area.

What they're saying:

The incident began when the suspects broke into a home in Sanford’s Lake Forest community, according to the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office. Deputies said the group took the keys to a vehicle parked at the residence and fled in the stolen car.

The crash occurred shortly afterward. Witnesses said the suspects jumped out of the damaged vehicle and were picked up by another driver waiting nearby.

"I actually stopped the car on the way out to just say, ‘Hey, what’s going on? You guys are kind of speeding through,’" said neighbor Marty Hardin. "I noticed the passenger had on a … ski mask on, which I thought was really odd."
