Video: Man Catches Guys Trying To Rob His Neighbor's House

Thousands of people are scouring the Las Vegas area for four would-be burglars after a brave neighbor thwarted their plans by shoving a camera in their faces.

Air Force veteran Brett McCann is being hailed a hero after he captured the bumbling men clumsily fleeing from his neighbor's home in a viral video that has been viewed more than 2 million times.

"What are you guys doing?" McCann asks as the first alleged thief races out of the house and diives head-first into the trunk of an SUV.

"This my homeboy's house," one of the men replies before jumping into the driver's seat.

He reemerges from the car to ask McCann, "Where my keys at?" before realizing he was holding them in his right hand.

McCann's confrontation spooked the four men and caused them to ditch their burglary plans, homeowner Margaret Allred-Mueller told the Daily News.

"He stopped them. He's the reason that they left all the stuff they collected at the front door," she said Thursday. "He's so brave. He's just amazing."

Allred-Mueller posted her neighbor's video on Facebook on Tuesday after she said the quartet busted in the front door about 11 a.m. and ransacked her home.

"It's horrible," the 45-year-old teacher said. "We're still shaken up. I can't believe it, honestly."

Her husband Joseph Mueller received a notification on his phone from their security system alerting him that someone was in their home.

"He knew something was wrong," Allred-Mueller said, adding that the two were at work and their two children were at school. "He looks at the camera in the live feed and sees these strangers in our house."

The frantic father immediately called 911 and McCann, who the family has known for 15 years.

"He said, 'Brett, they're in my house now! I don't want you do anything crazy, but they're in my house right now!"

McCann rushed out to record their escape. His footage has been shared on Facebook nearly 56,000 times since Tuesday.

"We just take care of each other," Allred-Mueller said.

The men had collected several belongings, including jewelry, in pillow cases. They were found abandoned near the front door.

While no items were stolen, Allred-Mueller said she was robbed of something more important.

"We lost our sense of security," she said. "We lost feeling comfortable, and I don't know how to get that back."

It's unclear if police have made any arrests in the case.

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department did not immediately return requests for comment Thursday.

Allred-Mueller said she hasn't heard from detectives about any arrests.

"If they could just get caught, that's all I need," she said.

Said …… This my homeboy's house ……..
